AICPA and Wall Street Blockchain Alliance Announce Collaboration

Associations Plan Joint Effort to Advance Blockchain Technology for Accounting Profession

NEW YORK (Oct. 23, 2017) – The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) and Wall Street Blockchain Alliance (WSBA), a leading nonprofit trade association promoting the comprehensive adoption of blockchain technology across global markets, today announced plans to work together to define the impact of blockchain technology for the accounting profession and advance the interests of both the public and profession in this area.

As part of this collaboration, the AICPA – through its technology arm, CPA.com – will administer the WSBA’s working group on tax and accounting, a focal point for advocacy and education on blockchain adoption within the profession. Other existing WSBA working groups include research and innovation, legal, and technology and product. The working group model is designed to provide a forum for experts to share information, guide advocacy and technical efforts and create broader educational opportunities—such as webcasts, roundtables and other content—to address issues arising from the adoption of blockchain, distributed ledgers and smart contract technologies.

“The accounting profession is built on confirmation and verification, and that’s what blockchain is all about,” said AICPA President and CEO Barry C. Melancon, CPA, CGMA. “This technology can have a profound impact on accounting and finance going forward, and it’s important we make sure that its adoption proceeds in a way that’s in the best interest of the public and our financial markets. Our working relationship with the WSBA, combined with our expanded global reach through the Association of International Certified Professional Accountants, will help further that goal.”

The collaboration was announced at the fall meeting of the AICPA’s governing Council in San Antonio, Tex.

“The WSBA is very pleased to be collaborating with the AICPA and CPA.com to guide the evolution of the global accounting profession in a future with blockchain technology,” said Ron Quaranta, chairman of the WSBA. “We look forward to working together to advance the world of accountancy and its use of blockchain, as accountants become integral participants in the adoption of this innovative technology for global markets.”

As a first step in collaboration, the AICPA will be part of an accounting-related panel at the WSBA’s Blockchain for Wall Street education day on Nov. 14, 2017.

“Blockchain is one of several innovations that are reshaping the accounting profession,” said Erik Asgeirsson, president and CEO of CPA.com, one of the participants in the upcoming panel. “Our role with the WSBA working group is to guide and speed the use of blockchain technology as it applies to the core areas of an accounting practice.”

Выход биографии ERIK GR&amp;#214;NWALL отложен

ERIK GRÖNWALL опубликовал следующее сообщение:

«Дамы и господа, у меня есть хорошие и не очень хорошие новости. Какую бы вы хотели узнать первой? Итак, начнем с не очень хороших новостей... Выход англоязычной версии моей книги « Power » был отложен примерно на две недели. Первоначально планировалось, что книга выйдет 21 ноября, теперь же новая дата - 6 декабря.

Когда я получил первоначальный перевод и прочитал его, я понял, что некоторые нюансы и выражения нуждаются в доработке, чтобы действительно отразить мой голос и замысел. Переводчик отлично передал основные идеи, но чтобы убедиться, что это действительно мои слова, я потратил дополнительное время на окончательную корректировку. Спасибо за терпение и прошу прощения за возможные неудобства, которые может доставить эта задержка.

А теперь хорошие новости! Вы получите более отшлифованную версию « Power », которая поступит в продажу 6 декабря, и я рад сообщить, что я также сделал аудиокнигу на английском языке с моим участием, которая будет доступна примерно в то же время. Шведское и английское печатные издания находятся под профессиональным контролем @harpercollins_sverige, но англоязычная аудиокнига - это более независимый проект. Я никогда раньше не делал ничего подобного, и это немного выходит за рамки моей зоны комфорта, так что спасибо за терпение!

Для тех, кто заинтересован в подписанной копии, вы все еще можете заказать шведскую и англоязычную версии здесь: erik.merchants.se. Я подпишу все англоязычные предзаказы в понедельник, 2 декабря. Обратите внимание, что прием предварительных заказов на английский вариант завершится 28 ноября.

«Спасибо всем за понимание и поддержку. Я рад поделиться с вами этой версией и не могу дождаться, когда вы сможете услышать «Power» на английском языке».
