Accounting Is a Team Sport

  • The economy runs on a web of regulators, universities, employers, industries, and professional bodies — all shaping the work accountants do. 

  • When these players work in silos, businesses fail. Opportunities are lost, jobs disappear, and GDP shrinks.

  • CIBA brings the players together. We connect accountants to regulators, industry bodies, and employers, making sure you’re in the right place, with the right skills, at the right time.
