nal president's message A message from
your president
Following on from the Hong Kong market
review carried out in 2009, additional
resources have been provided to promote
the science of management accounting in
Hong Kong. The promotion has resulted in
strong growth for CIMA in Hong Kong on
all fronts; seeing positive increase in our
new student recruitment as well as overall
growth in our student and membership
population. The strategies set in 2009 are
achieving encouraging results and we will
continue to put further efforts in rolling
them out in the forthcoming year to ride
on their success.
In the past, management accountancy
was seen more as a male-orientated
profession, perhaps ensuing from our
historical costing and manufacturing
origin. This perhaps, to a certain extent,
was reflected in our membership structure
with approximately 40% of our members
being female and a relatively lesser
representation of women than men
occupying senior business positions. This
issue was highlighted in one of CIMA
thought leadership pieces 'Breaking glass
- Strategies for tomorrow's leaders' during
the year. From Hong Kong, I would like to
take this opportunity to particularly thank
four of our members who took part in this
report; they are Theresa Chan (Corporate
Finance Director of Warner Bros), Amy
Lam (Group Finance Director of Jardine
Shipping Services), Irelan Tam (Regional
Finance Director of Johnson & Johnson
Hong Kong) and Jenny To (Managing
Director of Pernod Ricard). They are
amongst some of our many eminent
female CIMA business leaders who have
successfully overcome ongoing barriers in
their career development and reached the
top in Asia at the end. In the coming years,
I have no doubt there will be many more
successful stories of our lady members
that we can share with you.
As the Hong Kong economy becomes
more interlinked with the mainland,
we see more and more members and
students working and travelling between
the two places. This provides many
challenges as well as opportunities to us.
To prepare ourselves to cope with those
demands, CIMA is transforming into a
more regional organisation to take on
those challenges and opportunities. With
the directive from the CIMA Council, the
global governance structure will move
towards the formation of regional boards
to provide the necessary speed, autonomy
and empowerment essential for meeting
the council's objectives. Closer to us, we
will see the formation of three boards
namely the Australasia Regional Board, the
South East Asia Regional Board and the
North Asia Regional Board later this year.
The final details have yet to be confirmed
and all our members will be kept informed
of the latest development over time.
It has been my honour to be the
divisional president of the CIMA Hong
Kong division this year. I would like to
take this opportunity to thank all my
divisional council members and the
various committees for voluntarily and
whole-heartedly helping to promote
and grow the division together. Not only
have they devoted their valuable time to
CIMA, everyone has also given more than
their best efforts in being the honourable
ambassadors in this region to promote
management accountancy and financial
management for the institute. Last but not
least, I would like to express my deepest
gratitude to Leo Cheung, our immediate
past divisional president, for his valuable
service to the division as he will be retiring
from the divisional council after the AGM
in 2011. Thank you all.
Paul Chan FCMA
Divisional President, Hong Kong
CIMA Hong Kong Annual Review 2010
03 Divisio
nal director’s statem
entFrom the divisional director
In the past two years we have
be concentrating our efforts on
communicating the CIMA differentiation,
to enable the public, employers, tertiary
students and potential students
to understand what management
accountancy is and how our members
differ from other accountants. This
message has received good feedback
especially from two groups; financial
accountants wanting to expand their
career horizons into other roles, and
aspiring senior managers who would like
to be more financially literate in-order to
excel their career.
To facilitate these groups of prospective
students, in 2010 we introduce a special
gateway assessment designed to assess
MBA graduates and members of other
accounting bodies for direct entrance into
the strategic level papers. The assessment
looks at different areas taken from the
operational and managerial level and
serves as a safeguard to ensure that the
students will be able to pass the final
papers. We are grateful to Hong Kong
University SPACE, our partners who
have designed a preparatory course for
these students to aid their studies. In the
coming years we will expect to see more
students joining CIMA via these routes.
On a personal front this year been a
very rewarding experience. I have been
able to see how CIMA is able to help
people’s careers not only upwards but
also sideways. Members and students are
moving into roles where the skill set learnt
in the CIMA training equips them with the
knowledge they need. CIMA is regarded
as one of the most relevant to business
qualifications as we update the syllabus
every four years with feedback from over
2,000 employers. This reflects how our
qualification trains people to go beyond
accountancy and we now truly occupy the
space where business and finance meet.
Hong Kong has continued to shine within
CIMA. Our student Amit Chhabra from
Johnson Electric scored the highest mark
globally in the gateway assessment. Alan
Wong from Jardine Matheson came third
globally in the performance strategy
paper and Richard Bellingham came
sixth globally in the financial operations
paper. In general the passing marks for
the operational and managerial papers
in Hong Kong have been higher than
the global average for the second year
running. This has been achieved by not
only attracting students that are capable
but also the additional student support
resources that have been invested in
the past few years. In the CIMA Global
Business Challenge where over 2,000
groups of international university students
compete in a business case study, the
Hong Kong team won the accolade for the
second year running, demonstrating again
that the territory is producing some of the
finest financial leaders in the world.
Lastly, I would also like to thank the
divisional council for their direction and
my devoted team in Hong Kong for
all their enthusiasm and hard work in
delivering the excellent services to all our
stakeholders.

Independent auditor's report to the members of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (Hong Kong division)
ANDREW MA DFK (CPA) LIMITED
Certified Public Accountants
YAU WAI HING, STEPHEN
Practising Certificate No. P03392
Hong Kong, 28 February 2011
We have audited the financial statements of the Division set
out on pages 17 to 18, which comprise the balance sheet as at
December 31, 2010, and the income and expenditure account,
statement of changes in head office funds and statement of
cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory notes.
Divisional council's responsibility for the financial
statements The Institute's constitution and by-laws require the
Divisional Council to prepare financial statements that give a true
and fair view in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting
Standards issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public
Accountants, and for such internal control as the Divisional Council
determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due
to fraud or error.
Auditors' responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit and to report our opinion solely
to you, as a body, in accordance with the Institute's constitution
and by-laws, and for no other purpose. We do not assume
responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for
the contents of this report.
We conducted our audit in accordance with Hong Kong
Standards on Auditing issued by the Hong Kong Institute of
Certified Public Accountants. Those standards require that we
comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence
about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment,
including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement
of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In
making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal
control relevant to the Division's preparation of financial
statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not
for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the Division's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating
the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Divisional
Council, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view
of the state of the Division's affairs as at December 31, 2010,
and of its surplus and cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards.
