ACCA-MICPA MRA Signing Ceremony
Monday, August 13, 2007 saw the formalisation of an important partnership between two well-established Professional Accountancy Bodies with the signing of the ACCA-MICPA Mutual Recognition Agreement. The signing adds another milestone in the Institute's continued efforts in seeking mutual recognition agreements with premier accountancy bodies. The event was witnessed by En Othman Sahar, Deputy Accountant-General (Corporate).
In recognition of the increasingly global nature of the accountancy profession and business, the Council is conscious of the need to enhance the standing and recognition status of the CPA Malaysia qualification not only at the national level but also at international levels. The MRA provides a route for qualified members of either body to become a member of the other body, and to enjoy the benefits which both organisations can offer. Strong and meaningful international alliances such as this one are a very positive development for the profession as a whole and for the CPA Malaysia designation in particular.
Both bodies share common and strong interests in the advancement of the profession of accountancy, especially in relation to the maintenance and strengthening of professional and educational standards, and the agreement provides a greater platform for collaboration and allows us to share best practices in education and training.
