About ARI

The Accounting Research Institute (ARI) was first formed in 2002 as a special interest group.  Since then, ARI had gone through a complete evolutionary cycle which includes of first being a special interest group (SIG), then as a research centre and finally as a research institute. The Ministry of Higher Education formally approved the formation of ARI in 2005.   As a research institute, ARI is responsible to coordinate and manage the activities of its eight multi-discipline research centres.  Effective November 2009, ARI has been recognised by the Ministry of Higher Education as one of the Higher Institutions' Centres of Excellence (HICoE).
