Abstract

This paper develops comprehensive internal control and risk assurance frameworks to enhance compliance in supply chain finance, a domain characterized by complex financial transactions and multifaceted risk exposures. Utilizing a mixed-methods research design, the study integrates quantitative survey data and qualitative insights from interviews and case studies to capture the intricacies of control mechanisms and risk management practices in supply chain finance. The findings underscore the necessity of tailored internal controls that align with organizational objectives and regulatory mandates, complemented by dynamic risk assurance processes involving continuous monitoring, reporting, and feedback loops. Emphasizing technological integration, the proposed frameworks leverage automation and advanced analytics to improve transparency, accuracy, and compliance efficiency. The research highlights critical implications for practitioners and policymakers, advocating for adaptable, scalable, and technology-enabled governance structures. Recommendations for implementation and directions for future research address emerging technologies and cross-sector considerations, contributing to the advancement of robust compliance frameworks that safeguard supply chain finance ecosystems against evolving risks.
