In celebration of the Diamond Jubilee Year, The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India is organizing an International Conference on the theme 'Winds of Challenges - Global Strategies for Accounting Profession' from July 3-5, 2009 at Hotel Jaypee Palace, Agra.
As the world veritably transits to being 'Global Village'; the accounting profession, as an integral instrumentality in the process of transition, has witnessed a paradigm change in its contributory role in every sphere of the transformation; financial reporting being core to every sphere of economic activity. The shift in the business philosophies due to dawn of a new trade order further emphasizes a broadened role for the accountancy professionals as strategy formulators and facilitators.
Moving to such role of a value creator, the Institute has endeavoured to imbibe the best practices globally and has been playing the role of an enabler by getting its 150K strong membership base to acclimatize themselves with such practices.

One sees the emergence of shift to convergence program in technical standards globally and the instant International Conference titled "Winds of Challenges - Global Strategies for Accounting Profession" eloquently epitomizes the same.
