Good Morning
My name is Mário Vicente Sitoe, the President of the Board of the Ordem dos Contabilistas e Auditores de Moçambique (OCAM). It is with great honor, privilege and high sense of achievement that I stand before you to celebrate the admission of OCAM as a full member of the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC), a significant milestone in our journey and a testament to our commitment to promoting the highest standards of the accounting and audit profession in Mozambique.
Established by the National Parliament, OCAM was admitted as an Associate Member of PAFA in 2014 and got the status of full member in 2016. In 2019, OCAM was admitted as an associate member of IFAC, In Vancouver, Canada, marking a crucial step in its path towards IFAC full membership, which we are witnessing today here, in Vienna: One of the most beautiful cities in the World that I have ever seen. Making it a perfect place to host such a momentous occasion.
With that being said, I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge and express OCAM´s gratitude to the key organizations that have played a pivotal role in this achievement. As the saying, "Alone, you are weak, but together, we are strong." Our success today is a collective effort, and I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to those who have been instrumental in our journey: The Government of Mozambique, the Government of Ireland, through the Embassy in Mozambique.
I must acknowledge the crucial and very important role played by IFAC, PAFA, OCC (Ordem dos Contabilistas Certificados de Portugal), OROC (Ordem dos Revisores Oficiais de Contas de Portugal), PAAB (Public Accountants of Zimbabwe), CPA Ireland, CPA Canada, CFC (Conselho Federal de Contabilidade) of Brazil, IBRACON (Instituto dos Auditores Independentes do Brasil), the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Zimbabwe (ICAZ), Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Uganda (ICPAU), the National Board of Accountants and Auditors (NBAA), SAIPA and SAICA in South Africa, CTA (Confederação das Associações Económicas de Moçambique), Fundação MASC, the World Bank, FAN (Fundo Para Melhoria de Ambiente de Negócios). We are proud to have all of you as partners and supporters. So please accept our sincere appreciation for your invaluable ongoing commitment to our mission. We are proud to have you as partners in this journey.
I would like to express my deep appreciation to OCAM members, my colleagues, the OCAM Board Members, and the Secretariat for their efforts and commitment.
I am honored to invite everyone to celebrate this remarkable achievement as we embark on this exciting new chapter in our journey, contributing to the development of Mozambique, the Land of Solidarity, Prosperity, and Freedom.
Muito Obrigado!
