It is the first report prepared under the Accountants as Catalysts for Growth (A4G) initiative. EU-REPARIS has been designed to help and encourage the process of aligning legal frameworks in accounting and audit with the EU’s Acquis Communautaire and encourages the accounting profession to offer enterprises, especially MSMEs, effective business support services and advice on accessing finance and complying with regulatory requirements.
The Sustainable Education component of the REPARIS for SMEs program, which aims to train the accounting profession to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), continued its implementation this year by preparing and delivering a five-day training of trainers’ workshop during the week of December 9th, 2024, at the premises of the World Bank in Vienna, Austria. The training was delivered with the assistance of professionals from PwC, who developed the training materials under the guidance of the World Bank Team.
The Round table, organized by Governance GP Global Unit, is an activity of the FASE program whose objective is to develop more accounting technicians in Africa to support growth, accountability, and efficiency in the public and private sectors in Africa. The Program (2018-2025), funded by the Austrian Federal Ministry of Finance, includes two streams of activities.
