CIIPA's Business Law Course

The Cayman Islands Institute of Professional Accountants has introduced the Cayman Islands Business Law Course, which, pursuant Cayman Islands law, is a prerequisite to becoming a regular member of the institute.   In February 2023 (the "Effective Date") pursuant to section 2 of the Cayman Islands Accountants (Amendment) Act 2022, all regular members who joined CIIPA after the Effective Date must take and pass the CIIPA developed course before being admitted to regular membership.  The course syllabus covers a range of specific business areas impacting or relevant to the accounting profession, primarily the laws relating to companies and other commercial vehicles. These laws include the formation and constitution of companies, the financing of companies and day-to-day management, administration, and regulation of companies. There is also general information about the legal system and the constitution of the Cayman Islands which will be useful to accountants unfamiliar with the jurisdiction.
