CPA Australia, a leading professional accounting organization, is participating in the Australian Country Pavilion at the 2024 China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) as a platinum partner for the first time. This marks their ongoing commitment to strengthening bilateral trade and commerce between Australia and China. The event saw participation from CPA Australia s Global President, Professor Dale Pinto FCPA, and other representatives from both countries. During the opening ceremony, Professor Pinto highlighted the mutual benefits of trade in services between the two nations. In 2023, China emerged as Australia s largest services export partner, with a surge in the value of Australian services exports to China by over A$5 billion. This growth was driven by education-related travel, and Australia became China s seventh largest trading partner. CPA Australia acknowledges the economic benefits and lasting connections created through trade in services, particularly in the accounting and finance sectors. With more than 22,500 members in Greater China, the organization has been dedicated to promoting bilateral trade for the past seven decades by delivering high-quality information and training. The 2024 CIFTIS, themed Global Services, Shared Prosperity, showcases cutting-edge service products, with a focus on digital, intelligent, and green services. CPA Australia, in partnership with Austrade, will co-host an ESG forum titled Empowering a Sustainable Global Economy. The forum will feature insights from business leaders and experts on the latest trends and best practices in the green economy. CPA Australia s recent regional survey on business technology use revealed that nearly 70% of professionals across Asia-Pacific indicated that their company s investment in technology has been beneficial for meeting sustainability goals. The organization also signed Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with various associations and universities, underscoring their long-term commitment to collaborating with local organizations to develop accounting professionals in mainland China.
