NZICA announces new partnership with MYOB

The New Zealand Institute of Chartered Accountants (NZICA) is pleased to welcome MYOB as its newest Privilege Partner.

The strategic partnership reflects NZICA and MYOB’s common interest in working with New Zealand business.

Under the agreement, NZICA members will enjoy discounted training from MYOB, as well as professional development credits for MYOB training.

“By partnering with MYOB, we believe we can offer a wide range of benefits to our members in terms of training and professional development, as well as potential for additional support,” says NZICA Chief Executive Terry McLaughlin.

MYOB General Manager Julian Smith says NZICA represents one of the most important sources of advice and support for New Zealand businesses.

“Accountants are the most trusted business advisors for New Zealand business owners and make a very real difference to the success they enjoy,” says Mr Smith.

“NZICA is a highly respected professional organisation that plays a vital leadership role for the industry, and the wider business community. With MYOB providing solutions to more than 2400 accountant practices and 170,000 local businesses, we look forward to working together with NZICA in providing the highest possible professional standards and industry training. We also intend to collaborate on a number of initiatives designed to make business life easier,” he said.

To support the strategic partnership, MYOB plans to expand its market research investment via the MYOB Business Monitor to extend the professional development resources available to NZICA members about the health, capability and needs of New Zealand’s small business community, Mr Smith says.

“I also look forward to MYOB sharing with NZICA members the advocacy work we do on behalf of New Zealand small business – an area where Chartered Accountants are leading advisors,” he says.

“We endeavour to provide our members with attractive benefits for their professional and personal lives. Today’s partnership with MYOB is yet another significant addition to our suite of premium service providers,” Mr McLaughlin says.
