New Delhi, Jan 7 The Institute of Cost and Works Accountants of India (ICWAI) is bringing under a common platform seven management accounting bodies from different parts of the world for a ‘Global Summit on Management Accounting’ from January 10-12.

The summit, which has the theme ‘Repositioning the Management Accountant’, is expected to see participation of 1,200 delegates, including 200 from abroad, the ICWAI President, Mr Chandra Wadhwa, told reporters here today.

The summit would be inaugurated by the Company Affairs Minister, Mr Prem Chand Gupta.

Raman, Chairman of the Global Summit and Council Member of ICWAI.
