Why Engage a Chartered Accountant?
When you engage a Chartered Accountant (CA), you know you’ve engaged the most highly qualified professional accountant and business advisor available in the market place. The CA designation is the standard for accounting excellence - the one businesses and individuals look for first. No other accounting credential carries the same weight. You can rest assured you will be in good hands with respect to all matters with which a CA is involved. CA’s can help you and your business in many areas including, all tax matters, financial reporting and business advice including the preparation of audited, reviewed or general financial statements and assistance with starting or expanding a business. CA’s can also represent you in dealings with the Canada Revenue Agency including negotiating settlements, and provide you with assistance in obtaining financing, to name just a few of the services CA’s offer.
CA's are leaders in business - respected professionals who are essential to the success of Canada's foremost organizations.
In Canada, CAs legislate or create the national accounting and assurance standards (laws) to which all accountants must adhere. Given the prestige and the rigour required to become a CA, the designation is internationally renowned with reciprocity to many countries throughout the world.
The CA designation is backed by a stringent Code of Conduct and Ethics that guides all members in their professional decisions and actions. CAs are accountable to their clients and to the CA profession, and their professional conduct is held to the highest standards by provincial and national governing bodies – The Institute of Chartered Accountants of British Columbia and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Canada.
To maintain the highest level of quality, all CA firms in British Columbia are reviewed at least once every four years by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of British Columbia to ensure they are performing their work appropriately and in accordance with the applicable regulations and laws.
Every year, all CA’s are required to complete Professional Development courses to ensure they are keeping abreast of the changes in the area of their practices.
