Europe - from the Azores to the Urals
Article Abstract:
The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales is carefully studying the implications of the planned broadening of the European Community's (EC) membership base by the end of the 1990s. The Institute's leaders believe that valuable professional opportunities shall result from the expected entry into the EC of the European Free Trade Area countries. They also realize that an enlarged EC shall require the resolution of the key issue of mutual recognition of accounting qualifications. The Institute's leaders also acknowledge that Institute members can increase the British accounting profession's influence by playing a vital role in the strengthening of the financial infrastructure of eastern European countries. The Institute is therefore expanding its international work to ensure that it can effectively promote and safeguard the profession's interests in Europe.
