n recent years, there has been

growing realization of the need for

collaboration between private and

public sector audit profession for

ensuring effective oversight over

expenditure management and quality

audit in the public sector. A new Audit

Act on the anvil is expected to

address some constraints and

empower the Comptroller and Auditor

General (CAG) to use the private

sector audit service in fully

discharging its mandated

responsibilities, said a policy paper

presented in the workshop on “Public

Private Partnership for Improved

Public Sector Auditing in

Bangladesh” organized by The World

Bank, Dhaka at its office on 19

October 2016.

Masud Ahmed, Comptroller and

Auditor General of Bangladesh made

the opening remarks in the program

while ICAB President Kamrul Abedin

FCA gave introductory comments.

Ms. Suraiya Zannath, Lead Financial

Management Specialist, the World

Bank presented the key note paper.

Masud Ahmed said audit sector of the

country could be improved through

proper utilization of Public Private

Partnership initiative. Bangladesh

now attained the Middle Income

country status and is progressing in

many ways. However, there are

many challenges still hovering. To

overcome these challenges, ICAB

and CAG could work together

through organizing mutual

knowledge sharing sessions

particularly in the area of Improved

Public Sector Auditing in Bangladesh.

He urged the CAs and the officials of

OCAG to find out the way forwards so

that both the organizations could

work effectively.

Working together with OCAG is vital

for us with a view to achieve that goal

to contribute more and more our

national development, Mr. Abedin

said.

In Bangladesh the Supreme Audit

Institution –the OCAG is doing the job

with many impediments both

internally and externally with limited

capacity and resources. On the other

hand the ICAB professionals are

perceived to have their limited

exposure to public financial

management. Mutual cooperation

between public and private sector is

imperative to overcome those

limitations and challenges, he

opined.

Also, the Public Private Partnership

can be the way forward. ICAB and

OCAG should work together to

ensure ethical and technical

standards towards building

partnership. ICAB and OCAG agreed

to work together for promoting and

improving the public sector auditing

in Bangladesh. ICAB Council

Members and Senior Officials of

Office of the Comptroller and Auditor

General (OCAG) participated in an

open discussion.

xplaining the demand of Chartered Accountants in Bangladesh,

Kamrul Abedin FCA, President-ICAB said the country needs a huge number of CAs to meet the growing demand. He referred that in UK, majority of CEOs in listed companies are Chartered Accountants. Chartered Accountancy degree would give an easier opportunity to reach the top position of organizations, he stated.

Mr. Abedin was delivering the speech as the guest of honour at a seminar on ‘Chartered Accountancy: Career Excellence’ organised jointly by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Bangladesh (ICAB) and the Department of Accounting & Information System(AIS), Jagannath University at its Central Auditorium on 29 October 2016.

Vice Chancellor, Jagannath University Professor Dr. Mijanur Rahman, was the Chief Guest while Treasurer Professor Dr. Md Salim Bhuiyan and Dean, Faculty of Business studies Professor Dr. Moniruzzaman were present as Special Guests. Professor Dr. Ali Noor, Chairman, Department of AIS, Jagannath University gave the inaugural speech.

We are on the process of developing more MoU/MRA with the international and national Professional Bodies and renowned educational Institutions like ACCA, CIMA & Dhaka University. The passing rate of ICAB students are increasing significantly and the ICAB -Chartered Accountants are competent to act on global platform, Mr. Abedin said.

Our training wing, the ICPE, is working with a vision to ensure that members of

ICAB do not associate themselves solely with the word “Accountant.” ICPE wishing them but rather reach the ultimate goal of being the CEO of enterprises, he added.

ICAB is eagerly waiting for you all, he echoed to the audience students. Apart from twining MoU with ICAEW, ICAB is exploring all possibilities with regard to paper examinations and financial support for students of public universities, he stated.

Professor Dr. Mijanur Rahman said graduates in general education are not able to reach the top position of the organization. If you want to reach there, you need a professional degree like Chartered Accountancy. Chartered

Accountants are well informed smart professionals. They are catalyst in solving problems. That is why, highly graded companies/ multinational companies recruit them, he said.

Professor Dr. Md Salim Bhuiyan said, ICAB and Jagannath University need to sit together to explore more avenues to work on so that students would avail more benefits.

Professor Dr. Ali Noor demanded subjects’ waiver in studying Chartered Accountancy for the students of Department of AIS. ICAB Vice President Mahmudul Hasan Khusru FCA gave a motivational speech. A documentary on ICAB was also presented in the seminar.

October 2016 No. 324

Dear Fellow Members,

Assalamu Alaikum and greetings to all of you.

As I pass the last quarter of the year as President of ICAB, I am trying to accomplish our unfinished tasks. These are busy times as many of the events quite naturally fall into the last part of the year.

For the same reason, the month of October saw a number of trainings, seminars, workshops. The ICAEW team was in Dhaka for a number of days to interact with our Council, Management Officials, Students, Firms, etc. I thank everyone associated for facilitating the visit of the team.

Having said so, I would like to draw your attention to some of the prominent activities of the month.

Strengthening Financial Reporting Framework and Audit Practice: I express my great satisfaction for the World Bank project titled “Strengthening Financial Reporting Framework and Audit Practice”, signed through a contract with ICAEW where ICAB would be consultant for both goods and services deliverable by ICAEW. The ICAEW team consisting Senior Consultants of ICAEW, Dr. David Brookfield and Mr. Stephen Lamdin, FCA and Mr. Justin West, Head of New Business Opportunities interacted and exchanged view

with Council, Students, Firms between 24-30 October. The visit was culminated to a conference related to education and training with the members of Examination Committee, Board of Studies, Tutors and concerned department of ICAB.

Public Private Partnership for Improved Public Sector Auditing in Bangladesh: A team of ICAB led by me participated in a policy paper dissemination workshop on “Public Private Partnership for Improved Public Sector Auditing in Bangladesh” organized by The World Bank, Dhaka Office on 19 October 2016.

Mr. Masud Ahmed, Comptroller and Auditor General of Bangladesh made the opening remarks in the program while I gave introductory comments. Ms. Suraiya Zannath, Lead Financial Management Specialist, the World Bank presented the key note paper.

Mr. Masud Ahmed observed that audit sector of the country could be improved through proper utilization of Public Private Partnership initiative. He emphasized on joint collaboration between ICAB and CAG through mutual knowledge sharing to promote transparency and accountability in public sector financial management which was appreciated by all of us. In my speech, I echoed the same and in response I suggested to formulate a long term

strategic Public Private Partnership between us.

Promoting Chartered Accountancy: I appreciate the effort, an initiative of DRC and others to spread the career prospect of Chartered Accountancy profession to the doorstep of potential students, teachers. In the series of such events this time it was the Department of Accounting & Information Systems (AIS), Jagannath University where we organized seminar on ‘Chartered Accountancy: Career Excellence’ on 29 October 2016. Vice Chancellor, Jagannath University Professor Dr. Mijanur Rahman was the Chief Guest along with Professor Dr. Md Salim Bhuiyan, Treasurer and Professor Dr. Moniruzzaman, Dean of Faculty of Business Studies, Professor Dr. Ali Noor, Chairman, Department of Accounting and Information System, Jagannath University. The programme went well and was able to generate expected enthusiasm and eagerness among the students.

Arrangement for Online Banking Payment: We successfully signed MoU to make arrangement for the online payment with Bank Asia. This online payment will facilitate the payment of students, members to pay their fees and bills saving their time and energy. ICAB and Bank Asia Limited signed a Memorandum of Understating (MoU) at a formal ceremony at CA Bhaban on 24 October 2016. Managing Director, Bank Asia Mr. Md. Arfan Ali signed MoU on behalf of Bank Asia

We discussed about different professional issues particularly matters relating to Draft Guidelines on External Audit of Banks and the check list. The draft guidelines and the check list have been prepared by the Ministry of Finance and the Bangladesh Bank. We proposed extension of time schedule of submission of ICAB’s opinions regarding the draft. The Bangladesh Bank authority agreed on ICAB’s proposal.

Training on IFRS & BAS: We organized a Training on "Bangladesh Financial Reporting Standards (BFRS) & Bangladesh Accounting Standards (BAS) at CA Bhaban which continued from 13 August 2016 till 01 October 2016.

A total number of 45 students took part in the workshop. Council Members Mr. Muhammed Farhad

Hussain FCA and Mr. Dewan Nurul Islam FCA and Members Mr. Snehasish Barua FCA, Mr. Abdullah-Al Mamun FCA were the Facilitators in the workshop. I believe that the workshop has been beneficial for the students.

The total number of participants was 40 and I believe this time also the training programme on BFRS and BAS was worthwhile for the participants.

Deloitte has been fined a record £4m and its partner John Clennett has been fined £150,000 for misconduct regarding Aero Inventory. The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) has meted out severe reprimands to both parties, and ordered Deloitte to pay a further £2.275m for costs of proceedings.

Gareth Rees QC, executive counsel to the FRC, said: “This fine of £4m is the highest recorded by the FRC for misconduct on a firm and was imposed on Deloitte by the tribunal following a five week hearing.” Last year Deloitte was slapped with a £14m fine for its role in MG Rover – which was then cut

to £3m. Deloitte was the auditor for Aero and Clennett was the audit engagement partner.

The three allegations brought by the executive counsel to the FRC concerned the appropriateness of the accounting and disclosure in Aero’s 2006 financial statements. It included the cost of sales and stock valuations in the financial years ended 2006, 2007 and 2008, as well as the stock existence in the 2007 and 2008 audits.

All three allegations were proved and that the conduct of Deloitte and Clennett were
