Internal Controls

Auditing

What is the difference between Internal Controls and Internal Financial Controls? A standard ICAI question is that "An auditor should check if the internal controls in an organsiation are working correctly- Correct or Incorrect". The answer is he focusses on *Internal Financial Controls* and not on internal controls. Is it wrong therefore to say *Internal Controls* and not *Internal Financial Controls* when we are discussing auditing?
