Nina Michels-Kim, Director of European Operations at IMA Europe, agreed with this statement and added: "Our interest in promoting the importance of management accounting will definitely be supported through the MOU. The partnership will also offer our members the opportunity to broaden their knowledge thanks to the reduced IBCS® seminar fees for IMA members."
