ICAI President's Message - June 2018 - (31-05-2018)

President's Message - June 2018 - (31-05-2018) My dear Professional Colleagues, Good governance has always been at the core of all successful institutions across the globe. The imperative need to have good governance surfaced to demarcate the division between its ownership and its management. Concept of corporate governance rests on the fulcrum of transparency behind all decisions taken, accountability for the said decisions and safeguarding the interests of stakeholders. Chartered Accountancy profession and goodcorporate governanceare interconnected as one cannot think of good governance without regulating the financial and other practices of the organizations in so far they have societal impact. Within ICAI too, governance matters are always our top priority, and technology is the best way to manage, resolve and dealing with the issues of a large group like our membership and students. To effectively manage the education & training and other professional requirements of our huge membership and other stakeholders, ICAI has about 70 Committees, Groups and Departments that work thereat. If you have any query, concerns or grievance from the Institute, kindly use the platform ofe-Sahaayataa(https://help.icai.org/)and share your concerns. Through this, you can reach the appropriate function of the Institute and this will be addressed within the specified deadline. You will receive the solution/suggestion and way-forward. Since its launch, this platform has already resolved 3, 79,642 references, and it is receiving appreciations from users, mainly members and students. As I have informed earlier, system is now available on the ICAI Now mobile app and accessed by our members using this platform. Let me reiterate that this is a monitored multileveled platform and concerns if not addressed within deadline reach higher authorities on their own. On priority, we keep refining this platform since this is in our interests too. Its effectiveness streamlines our personnels administrative complexities too and provides an interactive space facilitating in effectively redressal of the shortcomings, if any. Your increased use of this platform will refine the governance at your alma mater. ICAI has and will continue to play an active role in the uplift of best corporate governance practices and their encompassing acceptance in the industry. Working with the Government, it has submitted many memoranda on various aspects of corporate governance, besides bringing out publications on the provisions of independent directors from the perspective of good corporate governance and holding relevant conferences, workshops and symposiums to inform, train and update the industry. Quite justified, therefore,corporate governanceis the theme of this issue (i.e. Journal). Strengthening Member Services With its sincere efforts of leveraging technology to empower its members and students and bringing various relevant services to the doorsteps of its stakeholders, ICAI has taken up many significant initiatives. Besidese-Sahaayataa, mentioned above, many initiatives have been undertaken for our members since my last communication. Some of these are:

• Good Standing Certificate:Much-awaited facility for our members abroad or those who plan to go abroad with regard to Good Standing Certificate has been made online.

• Website for Senior Members:A websitewww.seniormembers.icai.orghas been developed as a platform to help our senior members in getting full-time as well as flexi-working-hour assignments post-retirement. Besides, this will also bring out the otherwise-inaccessible and experienced talent pool before the stakeholders.

Participants can then post their query and the dealing faculty will be able to effectively take them up in real time, after accessing those in advance. Then, using ICE, faculty can also conduct poll among their audience to understand their nerve.

***********

Chartered Accountancy course of ICAI is being accepted and recognised in the country as well as globally from both academic and professional perspectives. While on the one hand, we are constantly entering into new MRAs and MoUs with foreign and international accounting bodies with acceptance of our CA qualification abroad, our academic institutions within the national territories are accepting our members offering them to pursue the PhD programmes at their premises. In this connection, I take pleasure to inform the membership that Visvesvaraya Technological University of Belagavi (Karnataka) has recognized the Chartered Accountancy qualification as equivalent to Masters degree and therefore, our members can now apply and join the their PhD (Doctorate of Philosophy) programme under the Management Studies (Financial Management). So far now, a total of 110 academic institutions of the country, including 102 Universities, 6 IIMs and 2 IITs, have recognized our Chartered Accountancy qualification for pursuing the PhD programme. Helen Keller has said:Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.We have achieved so much in the past, we have continued doing that in the present and we hope to do that in future too, I would say, our journey has just begun since we have miles to go from here. Ernest Hemingway has said on the power of human endeavors:But man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated. Shrimad Bhagwad Gita that has been among the greatest gospels of spiritual work ever provided to the human race defines a person of profound wisdom as one whose efforts are free from desire and worldly gratifications and whose actions are guided by the fire of wisdom. Let us try to become wise and knowledgeable in that sense and work together for the common goods of humanity. Let us all promise to give our society and our country what it deserves. Let us act with our conscience intact. Let us profess ethically with accountability and integrity. I extend my best wishes to all of you on the occasion ofIdul Fitrthat falls on 16th June this year. Let us all participate and celebrate the festival since festivals are meant to be relished together and joy when shared increases to eternity. Best wishes
