to the impact of internal auditing on the financial performance in centenary bank Kabalagala

view of the company’s prevention of errors and fraud and advising the management of business
in the public institution, while on the hand the dependent variable is financial performance which

solvency. However the two variables are intervened by moderating factors like; government
effort, the level of education of Auditors; business opportunity and materials used for better
