Getting a global perspective of the accounting profession

The Global Accounting Alliance (GAA) was formed in November 2005. It is an alliance of the world's leading professional accounting organizations, including the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA). The GAA was created to promote quality services, share information and collaborate on important international issues. As part of this effort, it publishes a bimonthly online journal to which its member organizations, including the CICA, contribute in-depth articles. Read the latest issue of Global Accounting Alliance online journal, including an article on fair value called When The Engine Overheats Don’t Blame The Oil Light by Paul Cherry, Past Chair of Canada’s Accounting Standards Board (AcSB) and Ian Hague, Principal, AcSB.
