Situation1. A treasury controller keeps custody of securities and stocks purchased by company. Situation2. Cash custody and cash entries are with two different employees. Please discuss segregation of duties.
Sitution1: Stocks and Securities are just pice of paper which can be reordered if lost I do not think they need much of supervision so they can be just locked up any where or in new age them come electronically and stored on computers or clouds.
Sitution2: having two persons looking after cash will cause conflict with in them if some cash is lost. One should supervise other where first one is in charge of cash and reports it to other the person to whome it is reported to must be senior and be able to question unsual spends.
