Section A:• Alphabetical profiles of Women Chartered Accountants 08with over 5 Years of Experience

Section B:• Seniority Wise List of Women Chartered Accountants 57with 5 Years of Experience



Preface In 2018, the CA Women’s Committee of ICAP took the initiative of publishing a directory of women members in order to encourage and highlight talent of female chartered accountants in leadership roles by virtue of their eligibility as independent directors on the Boards of public interest entities. Thus, CA Women Directory of Prospective Independent Directors came into being.

This Directory was aimed to benefit the entire corporate sector in Pakistan to select professional women for leadership positions and will save quality time and resources.

This year, the Directory features a total of 46 of members come from diverse backgrounds with rich experience in financial services, textiles, hospitality, audit and assurance, academia and training or health services. The Directory is going to greatly benefit the companies by providing them a pool of highly competent and experienced professionals to select the independent director for their boards.

The Directory has two sections as follows:

■ Section A presents the profiles of senior female chartered accountants with atleast 5years of membership who have given their consent to be nominated on the boards of listed companies.

■ Section B presents the names of all female chartered accountants who have 5 years of ICAP membership. Such females can be contacted through the CA Women Committee, if needed.

The Second Edition of the CA Women Directory will be available from April 10th on www.icapcawc.com. The Directory will be continuously updated and the profiles of more women CAs fulfilling the experience criterion will be added in the future editions.

President’s MessageOpportunities for women in Pakistan have never been greater, thanks to the trailblazers and to those who have paved the way for more equality for women in various fields. The boardroom is a vital, remaining frontier where the playing field has just begun to level, and it is a critical playing field because corporate directors are among the most important gatekeepers in our financial system.

Strong boards are indeed key to the success that allows for growth and innovation that sustains the country’s economic strength and development. Promoting women to corporate boards in Pakistan and elsewhere will directly improve profitability and change the way a business approaches its market. As per the global index provider MSCI Pakistan, it’s been proven that companies with more women on their boards deliver much better return on equity (36%) than those lacking board diversity.

The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan (ICAP) has a strong commitment to diversity and women empowerment and believes that achieving greater gender parity will strengthen the Institute as well as the profession significantly.

In view of the mandatory requirement in the Companies Act 2017 to include at least one female director on the boards of all public interest entities, the Institute’s CA Women’s Committee took the initiative to launch CA Women Directory 2018 of Prospective Independent Directors. The committee took the initiative to acknowledge female members who have served 25 years or more as members of ICAP excelling in their respective careers.

Working on the same, I am delighted to share with you that the committee has launched the second edition of CA Women Directory 2019 of Prospective Independent Directors. In our profession, we have many exceptional women chartered accountants who have reached the highest positions in their respective organisations due to their intelligence and continuous hard work. It is really encouraging to see that such visionary women will now be on the boards to protect public interest and will be a true asset for the corporate sector.

Achieving gender parity will require deep commitment and concerted efforts by all of us. Though challenging, the goal is attainable. I applaud the efforts of CA Women’s Committee that they have proved their determination to establish CA women brand across Pakistan, recognise outstanding female talent in the profession and provide opportunities for financial independence to CA women members currently on career breaks and I am proud to join you in this journey.

Jafar Husain, FCAMarch 2019
