Advisory Committees

AIA’s advisory committees play a vital role in upholding professional standards, shaping policy, and ensuring effective oversight across the accountancy profession.

Supporting Excellence Through Expert Insight

Our advisory committees bring together experienced professionals and lay members to guide AIA’s technical direction and regulatory responsibilities. Their work ensures our global community of accountants and finance professionals continues to benefit from trusted, forward-thinking leadership.

Technical Committee

The Technical Committee plays a key role in monitoring developments across the accountancy and finance sectors, helping AIA stay responsive to change. It shapes AIA’s official positions on government consultations and regulatory matters, ensuring our voice is represented in both national and international discussions. By reviewing emerging technical issues, the committee supports AIA’s commitment to thought leadership and professional excellence.

Its members include experts from a wide range of disciplines, with a majority of lay members to provide independent and balanced perspectives. This diverse makeup ensures that AIA’s technical responses are well-informed, inclusive, and aligned with the needs of our global membership.

Regulatory Oversight Committee

The Regulatory Oversight Committee plays a vital role in ensuring AIA meets its obligations as a recognised supervisory body under the Money Laundering Regulations. It provides independent oversight of AIA’s regulatory activities, helping to maintain high standards of transparency, accountability, and compliance. By reviewing the effectiveness of AIA’s regulatory framework, the committee supports our commitment to robust governance and responsible supervision across the profession.

Its membership includes professionals from a range of backgrounds, with a majority of lay members offering impartial insight. The committee identifies areas of good practice, highlights opportunities for improvement, and makes recommendations to the Council to strengthen AIA’s approach to anti-money laundering supervision.
