The Audit Public Oversight Body of Ukraine requests the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) to join the global community and consider applying a number of restrictive measures to the Russian Federation.
In particular, to condemn the aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine by:
- supporting the initiative to terminate the membership of the Russian professional organisation in the IFAC;
- restricting the access of Russian citizens to knowledge and experience of the ACCA, in particular, to close project the ACCA Russian-language Diploma in Accounting and Business («Финансы и управление бизнесом») and restricting access to ACCA exams to students with Russian citizenship;
- limiting the aggressor country’s influence on ACCA decision-making, in particular by denying a seat on the Council and International Assembly to a representative of the Russian Federation;
- limiting direct cooperation and closing the ACCA office in the Russian Federation.
Also, the Audit Public Oversight Body of Ukraine has asked for support for our auditors at this difficult time for the country and:
- reduce the material burden on ACCA members in Ukraine;
- increase the level of cooperation by reactivation of ACCA Office in Ukraine with Ukrainian management;
- simplify the procedure for recognition by the ACCA of the procedure and programs of attestation of auditors in Ukraine.
Together we will win! Glory to Ukraine!
