According to IIA, Monitoring is "a process that assesses the presence and functioning of governance, risk management, and control over time.". The internal audit activity does not evaluate the fraud risk, but evaluates the effectiveness of fraud risk management processes.

One of the roles internal audit shouldn't undertake is imposing risk management processes and the assessing the risk of fraudulent activity in the organization's risk management program is considered imposing and is not the role of IA , even there are some legislative roles should be undertaken with safeguards like facilitating , coaching and coordinating in RM Process. A & B considered core roles or assurance in regard RM. D Considered consulting in regard RM.

A looks more like it for me because while assessing risk may seem like a risk management role, Auditors are expected to assess fraud risk then conduct full investigation of fraud!
