the global economy creating value and

upholding business integrity in both the private

and public sectors. In a world demanding shortterm solutions, professional accountants are

challenged to sustain long term growth.

Accountants lead strategic teams and are

charged with creating value and safeguarding

assets. They are an important part of

organisational governance, and provide

regulators and society with assurance that

business has operated to the highest standards.

This World Congress will explore issues related

to key areas that directly and indirectly affect thecontinued relevance of the professional

accountant in the coming years.
