We had 690 members and exhibitors register for our event over the 3 days, capped off with a very successful hub event in Melbourne. The conference had a plethora of highlights, including two highly engaging keynotes from Professors Gary Monroe and Phillip Stocken, numerous informative panels and sponsor keynotes, and 170 presentations from AFAANZ members.</p> <p style="margin: 0; line-height: 1.2; word-break: break-word; mso-line-height-alt: 17px; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0; line-height: 1.2; word-break: break-word; mso-line-height-alt: 17px; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;">Thank you to our Platinum Sponsor: Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand, our Gold Sponsor: CPA Australia and our Bronze Sponsor MYOB for their support and contribution to the conference. </p> <p style="margin: 0; line-height: 1.2; word-break: break-word; mso-line-height-alt: 17px; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0; line-height: 1.2; word-break: break-word; mso-line-height-alt: 17px; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;">Congratulations goes to Professor Tom Smith and Professor Garry Carnegie for becoming AFAANZ Life Members.

The purpose of this review is to evaluate the extent to which AASB 1049 and the budgetary disclosure requirements in AASB 1055 Budgetary Reporting have been successful in harmonising GFS and GAAP reporting, whether the benefits outweigh the costs, and whether any improvements to one or both Standards are needed to assist the Standards to meet their objectives.<br /><br />A Consultation Paper has been prepared with questions for comment aimed specifically at users of government financial statements and at preparers of government financial statements.

Climate change is affecting every continent on earth, disrupting the economy and affecting lives. The Paris Agreement, adopted in 2015, aims to strengthen the ability of countries to deal with the impacts of climate change through appropriate financial flows and new technology frameworks; additionally, the UN Secretary-General has proposed six climate-positive actions for governments to take as they begin to individually and collectively begin to build back the economy post-pandemic. Companies will need to adopt long-term systemic shifts to address the changes necessary to comply with the Paris Agreement. This conference will discuss some of the changes that will be necessary to create the accounting framework for sustainability and responsible investing necessary moving forward.
