Purpose and Objectives

KPMG performed a review of the WEI to determine if an appropriate management-level controls framework is in place and to ascertain the degree of compliance with the WD contribution agreement for loans provided to clients.
KPMG evaluated the following in the course of this review:

  • The individual WEIs' adherence to applicable WD or Treasury Board (TB) policies
  • The individual WEIs' control environment framework

KPMG did not conduct an audit over internal control or business processes, or conduct sufficient testing to provide an opinion on internal controls.
