Report of the President
Dear Members,
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 11th Anniversary of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nepal andto present the Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year 2063/64 (2006/7). During the year, Mr. BinodB. Rajbhandary, IPP (2006-2007) was at the helm of Institute affairs and accordingly this report pertains to theworks done by the Institute under his commandment
This annual report describes the progress we are making towards achieving our goals. Much of what we are doingis work in progress but there is a renewed sense of energy and purpose within the Institute. The business environmentis changing. As an organization we need to keep pace if we are to maintain our position as a regulator of accountingprofession in this country. We have to plan for taking challenges ahead posed by WTO agreement and convergenceof Nepalese accounting and auditing standards to international standards.
The year 2006-07 has been a remarkable year for the Institute and the accounting professionals as well. Manyplans and programs for the development of the accounting profession in the country have been initiated andimplemented. Our Institute has completed 10 years of service to the nation and within this ten years it hasprovided remarkable services and has gain creditability as the regulator of accounting profession in Nepal. I wouldlike to place in record our high appreciation for the support received from the Government of Nepal, Office of theAuditor General, Donor Agencies, the business community, Council Member and members of the Institute.
I present before you some of the achievements made by the Institute during the year 2006-2007.
Membership
The membership of the Institute as of 16 July 2007 was 324 Chartered Accountants (CA) and 7,294 RegisteredAuditors (RA). Among them, 294 CA and 6,691 RA hold certificate of practice (COP). Total membership includes37 CA members qualified from our own Institute, 23 of them have qualified during the year under review. It is aremarkable result and a milestone achieved. All of these young professionals are placed amicably and highlyregarded. It has given us all a sense of belongingness and pride when the employers of these talents praise abouttheir work quality and ability.
The number of professionally qualified CA members is increasing. It has reached 373 as of today. 343 of them areholding COP.
Education and Examination
In the education front, I am overwhelmed by the response received from the students towards pursuing theChartered Accountancy course. With limited resources, Institute has endeavored to provide quality education tostudents.
The Institute conducted various career counseling programs in the major cities and the response from the studentswas remarkable. ICAN has participated in two education fairs, both of which have been a great success in attainingthe objective.
During the year, a total of 866 students have enrolled in different levels of CA Education as compared to 358 theprevious year. The number is increasing and has already reached 627 during the first half of the current year (2007/8). We consider this development as a trust and confidence bestowed in accountancy profession by the youngtalents.
At ICAN, we believe that we must be able to provide a medium where all aspiring young talents are encouragedand accommodated. Though CA education is considered the cheapest, yet we have established a ScholarshipFund to help the needy and brilliant students to pursue the CA education. The fund is flexible enough toaccommodate all types of contributions. I humbly request all members to contribute generously in the fund.
On this occasion I wish to appreciate and place on record all contributors who have generously contributed to thisfund so far. As of today, the highest contributions of Rs. 50,000 each have come from Sri Binod Bahadur Rajbhandari,our IPP and Sri Ram Babu Nepal, currently residing in the Netherlands.
As the CEO of NCC Bank, I am taking advantage of this opportunity to announce the bank's commitment toprovide two scholarships for Foundation course for next three years.
Improvement in Education Standard
A new syllabus in line with International Standards on Education pronounced by the International Federation ofAccountants has been approved by the council. The new syllabus is effective from December 2007 enrollment.
In the examination front, the trend of passing rate has been increasing and this year the pass percentages were 48,19 & 39 percent respectively in Foundation, Intermediate and Final level Examinations. We are committed toprovide quality education and has conducted crash course on various subjects during the year to improve in results.ICAN will explore the possibilities to provide class room instructions as well to the students on regular basis.
Our students visited Pakistan and India to participate in the Student Exchange Programs and presented technicalpapers in the programs. Also, we received students from Sri Lanka during the year. The exercise is found to besignificantly contributing to enhance the level of knowledge and confidence among the students. The Institutewill, as in the past, continue support in the students exchange program in cooperation with Nepalese CA StudentsAssociation
Quality Control Review
The Institute has laid special emphasis that its members in practice provide high quality of services to meetcurrent challenges and expectations of users of the financial information. To accomplish its mission, the Institutehas started the peer reviewing process by adopting Statement on Peer Review and Peer Review Manuals. Two days'training program was held to impart thorough perspective on peer review process, how it is done and what areexpected from the members in practice. The response is overwhelming and the peer review process is due forformalization soon among the practicing members.
Continuing Professional Education
We have formulated a policy of outsourcing of CPE training from the year under review, which I believe willimprove the quality of CPE Training and will focus on more relevant topics related to members and will reach tomore members in all the districts as well as relieve the administrative force of the Institute. Six outside institutionswere engaged in providing CPE training to the members of the Institute. The quest for partners will continuealong with necessary supervisory activities to ensure quality in the training imparted.
Despite constraints the CPE Committee has successfully organized 52 CPE training programs during the year, outof which 15 trainings were conducted through outsourcing in all parts of the country, participated by around 5,000members. I am thankful to all the CPE Committee members for painstakingly organizing the programs and whohave volunteer as resource persons and conduct of the trainings.
A thinking process has already begun to accommodate various professional programs conducted by otherorganizations into the ambit of CPE program. The CPE Committee is expected to come up with the policyframework soon.
Professional Standards
ICAN has been closely working with the Accounting and Auditing Standards Boards in pronouncing the Accountingand Auditing Standards. Till date the Institute has declared 20 Accounting Standards and 30 Auditing Standardsas mandatory for compliances and 6 Accounting Standards and 10 Auditing Standards as voluntary, as recommendedby the respective Boards.
I am thankful to all the members of Accounting Standards and Auditing Standards Board for their valuablecontributions.
International Relations
We have equally demonstrated our professional capability in International frontiers. We have applied for fullmembership of IFAC, and the process has been further consolidated during the first half of my tenure. We arehopeful that this will be materialized within current year 2007/8.
Annual Report 2006-07 • The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nepalx
