Schäffer-Poeschel Verlag, 191 pp, €49.95, ISBN 978-3-7910-2943-6
Internal audit has the function of providing independent and objective audit services for the company. It thus represents a substantial part of the overall internal control system in enterprises. The requirements on executive and supervisory bodies are steadily being raised through regulatory means. Internal audit can give management and supervisory boards relevant support in meeting these requirements. Correspondingly, the range of tasks for internal audit has extended to include, alongside the examination of systems and processes, also audit-related consulting services. Against this background, the book shows the value offered by internal audit. In addition to its conditions and design, the measurement of the value added and its control are shown.

Schäffer-Poeschel Verlag, 732 pp, €129.95, ISBN 978-3-7910-2991-7
The market for investment products is still rapidly developing, as well as the number of new structured products, the special tax features of which are transparent often only with well-founded support. This concerns not only consultants, banks, issuing houses and other institutional market participants, but also and especially investors and their advisors. This commentary explains the provisions of the Investment Tax Act with special attention to the links it contains, particularly to the Investment Act. One focus of the comments is the practical implementation of the provisions of the Investment Tax Act, in particular reporting obligations, and the creation of statements for the tax return. Another focus is the presentation of the international facets of the Investment Tax Act and the developments at OECD level.
