Robeco’s leadership receives the total scores of internal audit’s client satisfaction surveys, quarterly
reports on progress and major findings. Leadership also evaluates the internal audit team based on
feedback from regulators. “Of course, we have close contact with the management board. We meet
with them regarding quarterly reports, and we follow up on findings. I have a weekly meeting with the
CEO, a monthly meeting with the CFO, and quarterly meetings with business unit managers,” says
Bendermacher.
