What is IFMA: Background

The Suisse Romande branch of the International Financial Management Association (IFMA) began life in 1973 as an affiliate of the Institute of Management Accountants (IMA) in the United States. The Association changed its name to IFMA in 1983 when it joined other European IMA chapters to recognize the international aspects of accounting and business, in which the European members are mostly interested.

The European affiliates continue to maintain their relationship with the IMA, sharing many of its goals and objectives. They also benefit from the IMA's worldwide organization, which was founded early in the 20th century and whose members today exceed 100,000
