FAR

FAR was founded in 1923 and at the time, only included authorized public accountants as members. However, in 2006, the organization merged with Svenska Revisorsamfundet to include approved public accountants in the membership base. Since then, FAR has extended its membership scope to also include other professional accountants in public practice, such as authorized accounting consultants, authorized tax consultants and authorized public consultants. Membership in FAR continues to be voluntary. In addition to being a member of IFAC, FAR is a member of Accountancy Europe and the Nordic Federation of Public Accountants.
