Abstract
Against the backdrop of deepening economic globalization and an increasingly stringent financial and tax regulatory environment, corporate financial compliance is no longer merely a defensive bottom line for enterprises. Instead, it has evolved into a critical strategic lifeline that actively supports stable operations, sustainable development, and long-term value growth. Internal control, serving as the core tool of modern corporate governance, provides a natural institutional carrier and a robust operational logic for ensuring financial compliance. However, many enterprises currently face significant bottlenecks in the deep integration of internal control execution and compliance management. These challenges include outdated governance mechanisms, a severe lack of advanced technological means, and untimely risk identification processes. To address these critical gaps, this article systematically explores the optimization path of corporate financial compliance management based on foundational internal control theory. The study first clarifies the theoretical coupling logic between internal control frameworks and compliance requirements. Subsequently, it conducts an in-depth diagnosis of prevalent industry problems, such as a weak internal control environment, the absence of proactive risk warning systems, and insufficient supervision and execution within current enterprise structures. Based on these comprehensive findings, this article proposes targeted optimization strategies across four key dimensions: organizational restructuring, dynamic risk model construction, information technology empowerment, and the establishment of sound guarantee mechanisms. Ultimately, this research aims to provide highly practical guidance for enterprises seeking to elevate their financial governance levels and effectively resist systemic risks through the collaborative, synergistic drive of system, technology, and corporate culture.
