Established by the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA), the Malaysian Accountancy Research Education Foundation (MAREF) is focused on advancing the field of accountancy through research and education in Malaysia. MAREF’s core activities include funding research projects and MAREF plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between academic research and practical application.
In 2018, the Priority Research Topics (PRTs) Programme was introduced to drive the commissioning of research funded by MAREF Research Grants. These Grants are intended to encourage and support relevant, timely and applied accounting research. This involves identifying pertinent issues in the accounting profession and developing solutions to address those issues. To view previously published research under PRT, kindly click here.
In the future, MAREF aims to coordinate upcoming iterations of the PRT Programme with the goal of enhancing research and education for the profession’s continued growth. To achieve this, MAREF is actively engaged in fundraising efforts.
MAREF will be organising the MAREF Charity Golf Tournament 2024, a fundraising event scheduled to take place on Saturday, 16 November 2024 at Tasik Puteri Golf & Country Club located in Rawang, Selangor. Introduced in 2023, the inaugural Tournament was a success in promoting the work of MAREF as well as raising funds to continue meeting MAREF’s objectives.
