应印度共和国总理莫迪邀请，中华人民共和国国家主席习近平于10月11日赴印度出席中印领导人第二次非正式会晤。
此次访问是在庆祝中华人民共和国成立70周年之后，习近平主席的首次出访，不仅有助于进一步深化双方的沟通交流，加深彼此的长远合作关系，同时也在推动当前世界的多极化和经济全球化发展。
在共同促进世界经济发展的愿景下，ICAEW和印度特许会计师协会(ICAI)近日在伦敦续签了双方合作备忘录(MoU)，为双方资格互认建立框架，并为彼此会员获得相互认可的专业资格提供更加快捷的通道。备忘录的签署表明ICAEW和ICAI将深化合作，通过培养和提供具备专业技能的人才共同促进世界经济发展。ICAEW全球会长Fiona Wilkinson女士和ICAI会长PrafullaP. Chhajed先生于10月2日在ICAEW伦敦特许会计师大楼续签了该备忘录。ICAI副会长Atul Kumar Gupta先生也出席了此次活动。

ICAEW和ICAI还开启了新一项计划，在共同关注的领域开展联合研究，比如分享自动化领域的最新进展。两机构正在利用对英国和印度公司的案例研究，撰写一份关于IT、机器人处理和自动化的联合报告。
ICAEW全球会长Fiona Wilkinson女士谈道:“我们很高兴续签这份备忘录。本着共同合作的原则，我们正在努力加强双方的合作关系，为彼此的会员提供更多的发展机会。在这个现代、全球互联的世界环境中，专业机构需要跨越国界进行合作，确保我们相互学习，为不同地区的成员提供帮助和支持。
会计师和审计师在传递商业信心方面发挥着重要作用，商业信心是一种非常宝贵的指标，对印度经济和全球金融市场的持续增长至关重要。ICAEW与世界各地的国家会计机构合作，促进和发展最佳实践经验，我们也非常高兴与ICAI展开密切合作。”
Prafulla P. Chhajed先生表示:“续签这份备忘录将促进会员的跨境人才流动，并进一步加强印度和英国之间的双边关系。我们的使命是为会计专业人士创造下一个十年。我们期待双方在研究和会计领域进一步密切合作，并且为彼此的会员提供更加广泛的发展渠道，带来双赢的局面。”
ICAEW - The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, a world leader in the accountancy and finance profession, and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), a statutory body for regulating the profession of Chartered Accountants in India, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for mutual recognition of their qualifications and to create a pathway for their members to become members of the other’s institutes. The signing of this MOU demonstrates the strengthening and further commitment of ICAI and ICAEW to work even more closely to build a World of Strong Economies with the best professional skills.
The agreement between the two bodies was signed on 2 October, by ICAEW President Fiona Wilkinson and ICAI President Mr. Prafulla P. Chhajed, at a ceremony in ICAEW’s headquarters in London, Chartered Accountant’s Hall. Also present at the event was ICAI Vice President Mr Atul Kumar Gupta.
The Memorandum of Understanding establishes a framework for the two bodies to recognise each other’s qualifications and provide a fast track for members to gain the other Institute’s qualifications. ICAEW and ICAI have also embarked on a plan to develop research in areas of mutual interest – such as sharing the latest advances in automation. The Institutes are producing a joint report on IT, robotic processing and automation using case studies of companies both in the UK and India.
Fiona Wilkinson, ICAEW President, said: “We are pleased to be signing this MoU. In the spirit of unity ICAEW and ICAI are collaborating to strengthen our relationship and give our members greater opportunities. In the modern, globally connected world, professional bodies need to work together across country borders, ensuring we learn from each other and support our members in different jurisdictions.
“Accountants and auditors play important roles in delivering business confidence, a very valuable commodity which is crucial for the continuing growth of the Indian economy and of financial markets worldwide. ICAEW works in partnership with national accountancy bodies around the world to help promote and develop best practice, and we are happy to be working closely with ICAI too."
Mr Prafulla P. Chhajed said: “Signing of this MoU would facilitate mobility of members across the borders and further strengthen the ties between India and United Kingdom (U.K.). Our mission is to make the next decade for accounting professionals. We look forward to working closely with each other and to collaborate further in the field of research & accounting.
The membership of the local accounting body would provide larger professional avenues to members at respective end and would lead to a win-win situation for the members of both the accounting bodies.”
