What is the relationship between the CAQ and the American Institute of CPAs?
The Center is an autonomous public policy organization affiliated with the AICPA. It emerged from the restructuring and expansion of the AICPA’s Center for Public Company Audit Firms. The CAQ has a separate Governing Board and is funded by its own member firms. Our affiliation with the AICPA permits the two groups to collaborate on common issues, and the President and CEO of the AICPA is a member of the CAQ’s Governing Board.
