This study examines the interaction between internal auditors' personality traits and the internal audit function effectiveness. It also investigates the effect of such interacted variables on financial reporting quality. This study employed a questionnaire survey to collect data from 193 internal auditors of Jordanian companies listed on the Amman Stock Exchange. The study model is validated and tested using the partial least squares structural equation modelling. The results reveal that all the examined personality traits of internal auditors significantly impact internal audit function effectiveness except for the extraversion trait. The results also show that personality traits have indirect effects on financial reporting quality via internal audit function effectiveness. These results suggest that internal auditors with high scores on openness to experience, emotional stability, and conscientiousness traits can be among the most significant contributors to the internal audit function effectiveness. The results also suggest that internal auditors' personality traits can be regarded as an internal audit function intangible resource that enhances effectiveness. The study's findings might be of interest to many different parties interested in enhancing internal audit function effectiveness and boosting the financial reporting quality, such as external and internal auditors, auditees, human resource departments, and Chief Internal Audit Executives.

지방자치단체에 의한 감사는 지방자치단체의 내부 통제를 개선하고 자신들의 정책을 진단하여 관리능력을 향상시키며 정책 오류를 예방하는 역할을 한다. 그러나 자기기관 감사와 검사 수준은 매우 낮은 실정이다. 이는 전문가 수준의 직원보다 빈번한 순환 보직으로 실무 경험이 미흡한 감사요원을 배치하기 때문이다. 이러한 문제를 극복하고 지방자치단체의 자체감사기능을 강화하기 위하여 여러 가지 감사환경을 고려한 솔루션으로 새로운 시스템을 제안한다. 본 연구는 지방감사의 문제점을 찾아 자체 감사평가시스템의 새로운 체계를 제시하였다. 자체전자감사평가시스템은 자체기관 감사 및 검사를 강화하여 궁극적으로 지방정부의 역량을 강화시킬 것이다.

Good Corporate Governance (GCG) has been implemented by companies, especially companies that have gone public. However, many local companies still have not applied the principles of GCG. This study examines the implementation of the CG concept which is not fully implemented in family businesses in Indonesia. Besides, this research also aims to find out the role of the Internal Audit function in enhancing GCG practices. This research is a qualitative study that uses in-depth interviews, observation, and data triangulation, to gather evidence from exploratory case studies conducted in three family business firms. The results of this study found that CG is essential for the successful run of family businesses. After analyzing the data, we developed a new theory called Islamic Integrity Governance. The Internal Auditor plays a key role in improving GCG and a vibrant and agile internal audit function can be an indispensable resource supporting sound corporate governance. The internal auditor provides objective assurance and insight on the effectiveness and efficiency of risk management, internal control, and governance processes. Therefore, the Internal Auditor is an important pillar for effective and efficient GCG implementation. This theory concludes several concepts such as THTCL (Trustworthy, Honest, Transparent, Creative, Loyal). Internal auditors are needed because the concept of control is useful for improving GCG in business.
