根據(jù)HKCPA協(xié)會主席前日發(fā)給其所有會員的消息，HKCPA和AICPA以及NASBA已經(jīng)就港美注冊會計師互認問題達成一致，協(xié)議很快就會簽署。盡管細節(jié)問題還未非常明確，但是根據(jù)Steven老師的推測，HKCPA經(jīng)過IQEX考試可以獲得申請AICPA的條件，而AICPA可以經(jīng)過規(guī)定時間的進修課程獲得HKCPA資格。相比較來說AICPA轉(zhuǎn)換為HKCPA會更容易。

　　Winnie Cheung，Chief Executive & Registrar， Hong Kong Institute of CPAs，給所有會員發(fā)了一封公開信，證實香港將與美國互認。由于全文較長，大家可以重點關(guān)注的第七點紅字。
　　Dear Members and Students，
　　Subject： China & International
　　In part one of this June 2011 CE Update， I have focused on local news. For this second part， I'd like to share with you news from my trips to New York and Beijing in March and April this year that may be of interest and relevance to you.
　　New York meeting
　　In early March， I travelled to New York for two meetings： the IFAC chief executive's two-day Strategic Forum and the Global Accounting Alliance two-day board meeting.
　　IFAC's strategic plan for 2011-2014
　　1. The IFAC CE Strategic Forum was created in 2003 where the chief executives of a selected group of accounting institutes are brought together to discuss matters of particular relevance to the global accountancy profession and IFAC. Conclusions of the CE Forum provide major input and influence to the IFAC board's annual plans and actions.
　　2. The CE Strategic Forum 2011 discussed a number of key global issues including the European Commission's green paper on audit policy， integrated reporting， the sovereign debt crisis in Europe， IFAC's strategic plan for 2011-2014 and how to keep the accounting profession relevant. You are encouraged to visit the IFAC website and use the search function to get references to these subjects.
　　3. I， together with two other chief executives， Barry Melacon， the CEO of the American institute， and Helen Brand， the CEO of ACCA， were invited to present views on the opportunities and risks facing the profession from three geographic perspectives. I identified three of the most critical risk factors for IFAC and the accountancy profession and proposed 15 mitigating actions. I greatly appreciated the opportunity to gain a voice in IFAC's development of its strategic plan for the global profession.
　　4. With a focus to enhance the relevance of the profession， the IFAC strategic plan for 2011-2014 seeks to serve the public interest through continually strengthening the worldwide accountancy profession and contributing to the development of strong international economies. IFAC says it will do this by establishing and promoting high-quality standards， furthering international convergence and speaking out on public interest issues where the profession's expertise is most relevant.

　　IFAC global survey on risk
　　5. Prior to the Strategic Forum， the president and chief executive of each member body of IFAC were asked to complete a global leadership survey on a variety of topics including public sector finance， international standard setting and the professions' global voice， supply and demand， attractiveness of the profession and corporate governance. Philip Tsai， our president， and I each completed a copy of the questionnaire. Click here for the result of this global survey completed by 123 respondents from 1 January 2011 to 15 February 2011. Respondents included 94 accounting institutes in 73 countries and jurisdictions， including Hong Kong and mainland China.
　　Representing Hong Kong
　　6. AICPA also took the opportunity to interview a number of CEs for their magazine， Journal of Accountancy， and I gave the view from China and Hong Kong. The video is in two parts， entitled "China's Accounting Landscape"， and "Lessons from Hong Kong's Convergence to IFRS" and is now live on the magazine's website.
　　Mutual Recognition Agreement （MRA） with the US CPAs
　　7. While I was in New York， I also took the opportunity to meet with US IQAB， NASBA and AICPA representatives to finalize the terms of our MRA. The proposed agreement was approved by the Institute's council and IQAB board in March and April respectively. Pending approval of the AICPA and NASBA boards in July and August， we expect to sign the agreement in October this year. I look forward to announcing the full details then. Beijing meetings
　　8. I traveled to Beijing with the president and two vice presidents in March， which is part of our twice yearly leadership visits to talk to our mainland counterparts about issues and concerns as well as joint projects and collaborations. We met with heads of the accounting bureau and supervision and inspection bureau of the MoF， the CICPA and the CSRC.
　　Cooperation on convergence
　　9. China's ongoing convergence to IFRS needs continuous maintenance. It is important also that other areas of accounting in China such as auditing standards， code of ethics and independence， corporate governance and disclosure， regulation and education are also moving to international benchmarks. The Institute is working closely with our mainland counterparts on all these areas. International investors rely on this to invest with confidence in the capital market of Hong Kong， which is now largely built on mainland companies and money. We believe one important and critical way to maintain Hong Kong as a vibrant and dynamic international financial centre is by building on our un[size=+0]ique positioning in our close collaboration with the mainland and to bring about convergence of standards and practices in different facets of the capital market both between Hong Kong and mainland as well as globally.
　　CPD recognition
　　10. To facilitate our members to gain CPD credits while they are in mainland China and vice versa， we discussed with CICPA the prospect of mutual recognition and cross-offerings of CPD to members of the two Institutes. This would help our mainland based members to fulfill their professional development needs in a cost effective manner.
　　China's 12th five-year plan and human capital
　　11. We discussed how the profession can contribute to the five-year plan particularly in the development of human capital in support of China's economic growth.
　　12. We signed an MoU to grant exemptions to our members for a fourth PRC CPA Uniform Examination paper， "Corporate Strategies and Risk Management，" making it easier for our members to gain the mainland qualification.
　　13. The globalization of the mainland economy has raised demand for accounting professionals with an international outlook and offers diverse opportunities to our members. Our presence in China will strengthen our brand positioning， while we seek to open more doors and opportunities for all our members.
