Accountants are often unsung heroes, as they do not work under the spotlight, but an organization of certified accountants is keen to promote their services.

Chen Yugui, secretary-general of the Chinese Institute of Certified Public Accountants, said the institute will organize a series of events, including contract signing ceremonies and press conferences, to promote the section of accountancy at this year's China International Fair for Trade in Services, which is running through June 1.

The contracts to be signed at the fair cover the one between ShineWing Certified Public Accountants and China Beijing Environment Exchange on carbon trading-related accountancy services and those for Russian and New Zealand accounting firms to join the Reanda International, a China-based network of independent accounting and consulting firms.
