This year’s event will run under the theme, Building resilient finance leaders and organizations.
The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants
(ACCA) has started accepting entries for the 2020 Chief Finance Officer
(CFO) Awards.
Established in 2017, the Awards recognize and celebrate the outstanding achievements of CFOs'.
The awards are open to finance officers of listed companies, large
corporations, SMEs, state-owned entities, Non-governmental organizations
and government institutions, a media statement said on Saturday.
This year's event will run under the theme, Building resilient finance leaders and organizations.
According to the press statement, the fourth annual awards will
continue to illuminate the essential role that the finance function
plays in driving integrated thinking in decision-making and in building
sustainable business models while acknowledging the agility with which
organizations have transformed work against all odds.
"The purpose of the CFO awards is to raise the profiles of the
CFO's, their involvement in the ever-changing world and development of
businesses and finance practices. We also recognize excellence and the
essential roles they play in building resilient organizations," said
Norbert Kagoro, the Country Managing Partner, of Deloitte Uganda.
ACCA is organizing the awards in partnership with Deloitte (Uganda) Limited.
Charlotte Kukunda, the Business Development Manager, ACCA Uganda
said: "Through the CFO Awards, ACCA has been able to live and
demonstrate its purpose, drawing attention to the necessary professional
skills that should be adopted and demonstrated by leaders who meet
needs of a rapidly changing business and economic landscape."
"ACCA believes that accountancy is a cornerstone profession of
society that supports both public and private sectors. That's why it is
committed to the development of a strong global accountancy profession
and the many benefits that this brings to society and individuals," the
statement said.
"The COVID-19 virus has changed the ‘normal' meeting and
interactions that we were accustomed to. What is evident is that, we
continue to find new and innovative ways to connect with audiences in
our ‘new normal'."
Unlike the previous years, this year's awards will be a virtual
event with equal interactions and networking opportunities, ACCA
announced.
