Good morning ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests. Before starting my presentation I would like to express my sincere thanks to the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and its President for inviting me to speak at this conference. It is a real pleasure to be here in India. India certainly lives up to the promise of the Incredible India! Tourist adverts! Delegates, the object of my presentation is to explain how the International Federation of Accountants, and in particular its Small and Medium Practices (SMP) Committee, seeks, in collaboration with IFAC member bodies, to help SMPs in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, and elsewhere. Before describing our activities let me open with a few introductory words on the SMP Committee.
