CA daily briefing: Monday 06 April 2020

By Andrew Harbison, ICAS

6 April 2020

Your essential briefing of the morning's top news stories.

Good morning, Andrew Harbison back to bring you your essential updates from ICAS and around the world.

The latest from ICAS

CAs must take personal responsibility for ensuring adherence to the fundamental ethics principles which are enshrined in the ICAS Code of Ethics. The reputation of the profession - how CAs are perceived by the public - is defined by what they do, how they do it, and how they treat other people. There is a need for every individual CA to demonstrate the highest standards of professional behaviour and ethical standards to benefit society as a whole. Read the standards team's article on why upholding ethics remains a CA's responsibility.

Justine Riccomini explains what ICAS is doing for its members in relation to the Job Retention Scheme and other COVID-19 measures over the coming weeks.
