The KPMG sponsored Audit Committee Institute (ACI) aims to be the first point of call for any audit committee member wishing to implement and/or improve audit committee processes.

Key facts:

• ‘A European forum’ – The European Audit Committee Chairman’s Forum (EACCF) brings together audit committee chairman from the top 100 European companies, on a bi-annual basis, to debate issues of concern with their peers and to develop practical ways in which to enhance both audit committee effectiveness and the functioning of the capital markets.

• ‘The UK ACI’ – interacts with 94% of FTSE 100 companies and audit committee members of: mid and small cap companies, AIM companies, Charities, Social Housing organisations and many more services in the UK.

• Events – The ACI run a regular programme of events including bi-annual technical update seminars, a breakfast programme for members from FTSE 350 companies and a variety of sector and subject specific events, which provide members with a wide and comprehensive technical resource programme. Full details of the 2008 agenda can be found here.
