The European Commission has published its 2025 Work Programme, setting a strategic course for boosting competitiveness, enhancing security, and strengthening economic resilience across the EU. With a focus on innovation and growth, the work programme outlines a series of initiatives aimed at creating more opportunities for citizens and businesses, as well as fostering a secure and prosperous future for the EU.
Among the most relevant initiatives, the Compass Initiative and Omnibus Simplification Measures stand out as key elements affecting professionals and businesses. These initiatives focus on reducing administrative burdens, fostering innovation, and ensuring that EU policies work efficiently in practice.
As the Commission moves forward with its ambitious agenda, ECIIA will continue to monitor and respond to the legislative changes that will shape the internal audit landscape, ensuring that the profession is well-equipped to navigate these evolving policies.
