10-6 The control environment consists of the actions, policies, and procedures
that reflect the overall attitudes of top management, directors, and owners of an
entity about internal control and its importance to the entity. The control
environment serves as the umbrella for the other four components (risk
assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring).
Without an effective control environment, the other four are unlikely to result in
effective internal control, regardless of their quality. However, all five components
are necessary for effectively designed and implemented internal control.
