COSO

COSO
(1) The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Formed in 1985 by five U.S. professional organizations to sponsor the National Commission on Fraudulent Financial Reporting. This was an independent, private sector initiative. The committee developed recommendations used by financial auditors, the SEC and regulators.
(2) The name most commonly used to refer to guidelines for enterprise-wide risk management ( ERM) called "Internal Control - Integrated Framework". These COSO guidelines now serve two purposes.
1. They are used by internal and external auditors to implement and evaluate a firm's financial controls. The 2002 Sarbanes-Oxley Act and similar legislation is a primary driver of this application.
2. Financial institutions are also using COSO guidelines for ERM in general but primarily for the identification and control of operations risk. The Basel II capital requirements and related rules issued by national banking regulators are a primary driver of this application.
