A Yorkshire accountant has become among the first 100 people in the world to gain a new international qualification in corporate finance.
Tariq Javaid, a corporate finance manager who joined accountants and business advisers Garbutt & Elliott in 2007, has passed the Corporate Finance qualification (CFq).
The qualification was launched jointly by the Institute of Chartered Accountants England and Wales, Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants and the UK Securities and Investment Institute in 2005.
Recognised globally, the certificate deals exclusively in corporate finance and concentrates on the technical, analytical, decision-making and practical skills required to perform at the highest level demanded by industry.
