ICAC 2025 CONFERENCE 1080X1080Conference Website

There are currently four regional committees, which have been established for the functional areas of PAO Development, Technical, Public Sector Financial Management and Regional Practice Monitoring.

The Public Sector Financial Management Committee
The Public Sector Financial Management Committee was established in June 2016 with a mandate to support the ICAC’s strategic goal to promote IPSAS and its benefits in enhancing effective public sector financial management and accountability in the Caribbean. The Committee’s objectives include engaging governments, the accountancy profession and other key stakeholder groups across the region, with a view to promoting improved public sector accounting and public financial reporting reform. The Committee also exists to support the efforts of member bodies in the region in promoting the importance, value, and benefits of high quality public sector financial management within their respective jurisdiction.
The Regional Monitoring Committee
The Regional Monitoring Committee has been tasked with the responsibility to oversee the administration of the regional practice monitoring programme, which is intended to enhance the capacity of the accountancy profession.
The Technical Committee
The Technical Committee seeks to encourage the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and International Standards on Auditing (ISA) and the harmonization of internationally acceptable standards within the region. The Committee is also responsible for reviewing and providing comments on standards being developed or issued by international standard setting bodies and to encourage adoption and implementation by the accountancy profession in the region.
PAO Development Committee
The PAO Development Committee was established to advise and provide trends and opportunities relevant to capacity building; advocate for the strengthening of PAOs in support of the accounting profession; provide assistance and mentoring to PAOs as they strive to improve and meet IFAC’s membership obligations and global practices; enable access to resources and expertise including international development, and retain existing membership, while increasing the overall membership.
