Below is an excerpt from Göran Tidström's President's Message, from page 3 of the newsletter:

Seizing Opportunities, Pursuing Our Goals

From stronger alliances with regions of the world, different industries, and other organizations, to the rapidly evolving sovereign debt crisis and the push to sustainability--the world, the economy, and our profession will change dramatically in the coming months and years. We must keep pace with this change--indeed, we must lead it. I am confident in IFAC's and the profession's ability to do so.
