    THE Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants (Isca) is investing S$3 million in the next three years to set up overseas learning centres, as part of a wider internationalisation push.

    The national accounting body has 12 overseas chapters in 10 markets, and aims to have overseas learning centres in at least six of these by end-2024.

    Being qualified in Singapore’s accounting standards will enable such foreign trainees to work in the Republic – or provide offshored services to Singapore-based firms.
