PROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTANT

A management accountant applies his or her professional knowledge and skills in the preparation and presentation of financial and other decision-oriented information in such a way as to assist management in the formulation of policies and in the planning and control of the operation of the undertaking. Management accountants, therefore, are seen as the “value-creators” amongst accountants. They are much more interested in forward-looking and taking decisions that will affect the future of the organization than in the historical recording and compliance (scorekeeping) aspects of the profession. Management accounting knowledge and experience can, therefore, be obtained from varied fields and functions within an organization such as information management, treasury, efficiency auditing, marketing, valuation, pricing, logistics, etc. The Institute works in the interest of its members and students, and supports them by providing all-round services throughout their careers. We provide guidance and resources for individuals to advance in their own professions.
