THE Institute of Solomon Islands Accountants (ISIA) will be hosting its inaugural Accountants Congress this year on the 17th of September 2024.
The 2024 Accountants Congress will be hosted with the theme ‘Building for a Sustainable Future for Solomon Islands: The Role of the Accounting Profession in Nation-Building’.
The Accountants Congress is an event that Professional Accounting Organisations (PAOs) around the world host annually as a platform to facilitate discussions on relevant matters of national interest with the government, business communities, industry experts and the finance and accounting professionals.
ISIA, as the Solomon Islands national PAO mandated by the Accountants Act 2010 to develop and regulate the SI accounting profession, will be partnering with the Institute of Public Accountants (IPA Australia) and the Chartered Accountants of Australia and New Zealand (CA ANZ) to host this high-profile national event.
ISIA Chief Executive Officer, Ms Pamela Naesol-Alamu said the intention of this Congress is to bring together business leaders, industry experts, government representatives, donors, and the accounting profession together to effectively dialogue and seek prospective collaborative solutions to support sustainable nation-building efforts for Solomon Islands.
“The overall objective of the Accountants Congress is to facilitate discussions between the private sector business community, industry experts, government and the accounting profession on relevant matters affecting the SI economy, business practices and the development of the local accounting profession,” she said.
The Congress will provide an opportunity for participants to listen to prominent international speakers and leaders in finance and the business community share ideas and views with accountants and debate current issues and trends affecting the profession, the business community, and the Solomon Islands economy.
The 2024 Accountants Congress is expected to have presentations from various sectors including from the accounting profession, Government, financial institutions, donor partners, private sector, and other professional bodies.
Overview of the topics for discussions includes the Solomon Islands economy, relevant business issues affecting local businesses, accounting issues both globally and nationally including ethics and good governance, change management and effective transformation and the key to achieving success.
