Home About IFAC Membership & Compliance Program Member Bodies Regional Organizations
Regional Organizations
Recognized Regional Organizations (ROs) are independent bodies which share IFAC's mission and values and which, in many cases, share IFAC's membership. ROs play a valuable role by supporting the development of the international accountancy profession, facilitating convergence to international standards, and providing leadership in addressing issues affecting the accountancy profession in their region and/or constituencies.
IFAC wishes to have a limited number of regional organizations that represent the major geographic regions of the world. A policy statement sets out the criteria under which a regional organization may be recognized by IFAC and the specific obligations for that organization.
