An international body of major accountancy organizations that is exploring the creation of a new global business credential has added its first European member.
The Consiglio Nazionale dei Dottori Commercialisti and the Consiglio Nazionale dei Ragionieri e Periti Commerciali, which represent more than 90,000 Italian accountants, are merging. The newly formed group joins associations in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States, which are already serving on the committee.
