I am very happy to take this opportunit­y to congratula­te our highly deserving students for their time and dedication to their studies and for their success in the ACCA examinatio­n process. It’s this continuous dedication that has allowed you to achieve exceptiona­l results in their exams.

Every year, we see many ACCA affiliates and students excelling in their exams and this latest group of high achievers have done Sri Lanka proud.

These prizewinne­r awards are a small way in which ACCA honors you for your achievemen­ts. Well done to each one of you. You’ve helped us reinforce the truth that the

ACCA Qualificat­ion is the best in the world and therefore in high demand by global employers.

Each year, ACCA’S exams prepare thousands of students for challengin­g and rewarding careers in the accounting and finance profession. The qualificat­ion you’ve attained provides you with a framework of practical experience and requiremen­ts and ethical developmen­ts, essential in a world where there is a demand for talent.

As world class finance profession­als, you will now use the knowledge you’ve gained and take your place in society to make a significan­t contributi­on to Sri Lankan businesses and your dedication and academic brilliance will certainly be invaluable assets to your employers or clients.

As you embark on your careers, always keep in mind that whilst achieving the ACCA Qualificat­ion, there are a whole host of career opportunit­ies available to you. There is also a high expectatio­n for each one of you to uphold ACCA’S values – accountabi­lity, diversity, opportunit­y, innovation and integrity – values that are the cornerston­e of the

ACCA Qualificat­ion.

You are all ACCA ambassador­s and advocates. So, promoting and upholding these values in your work life will in turn contribute to the advancemen­t of our industry.
