Over the past weekend, ISCA was in Kuala Lumpur engaging with educators, members and regional partners to strengthen the future of the accountancy profession across ASEAN.

At the ASEAN Accounting Educators Summit organised by the Tunku Abdul Rahman University of Management and Technology (TAR UMT), ISCA CEO Ms Fann Kor delivered the first keynote on "Educating Trusted Accountants in the AI Era", highlighting how AI is reshaping the profession and why the future of accounting will depend not only on technology, but on trusted professionals equipped with critical thinking, professional judgement, ethical courage and AI fluency.

Later that evening, ISCA brought together members and partners at the ISCA Members Networking Dinner in Kuala Lumpur. The evening featured discussions on how AI is transforming the profession, the importance of responsible AI adoption, and ISCA's initiatives to help members build AI fluency and remain future-ready. We also celebrated our community by presenting CA (Singapore) badges and membership milestone pins, and marking the occasion with a celebration for the July birthday babies.

The engagements concluded with the ASEAN Accounting Educators Workgroup Meeting, where regional representatives discussed opportunities to strengthen collaboration and prepare the next generation of accountants for an increasingly AI-enabled profession.

As the profession continues to evolve, ISCA remains committed to supporting our members, strengthening regional partnerships, and working with stakeholders across ASEAN to build a trusted, future-ready accountancy profession.

Fraud Prevention: Beyond Robust Internal Controls

If you believe a robust internal controls framework is all that's needed to prevent fraud, think again.

Fraud rarely starts with major misconduct. More often, it begins with small process deviations: reconstructed records, altered documents couched as "tidying up", offline approvals, etc.

Individually, they may appear harmless but over time, these erode accountability, weaken audit trails and create conditions where larger control failures can take root.

The answer is not to simply add more policies and checklists. Instead, organisations must build environments where:
• Speaking up is safe
• Following the process is the easiest option
• Leaders pay attention to behavioural red flags, not just outcomes

Across industries, AI is being embedded into daily workflows, but not in the way many feared.

At the National University Health System (NUHS), AI is used to support, not replace, healthcare professionals, improving financial operations while keeping human care at the centre.

Meanwhile, at the Changi Airport Group (CAG), automation is freeing finance teams to focus less on processing and more on insight, judgment, and business impact.

Two organisations, two approaches. Both show how AI can elevate, not eliminate, human roles.

These case studies, shared by ISCA CFO Committee members Wong Soo Min, CA (Singapore), Group Chief Financial Officer of NUHS, and Chua Siew Hwi, FCA (Singapore), Senior Vice President of Enterprise Performance at CAG, offer a closer look at how organisations are approaching this shift in practice.
