ICMA has great ambitions for expanding into Nepal. Three senior accountants from Nepal attended the Dubai CMA Program in November 2016; and had discussions with Professor Janek Ratnatunga, ICMA-CEO and Dr. Chris D’Souza, ICMA-CFO on strategy. Following this, in January 2017, Dr. Chris D’Souza, ICMA-CFO and his son, Mr. Rohan D’Souza (who is a trainee accountant at the ICMA Secretariat) visited Nepal to have in-depth discussions with a large group of interested accountants.
