The FiRe Awards are an annual ceremony through which excellence in

financial reporting is recognized and rewarded. Organisations in the private, public and non-profit sectors participate by submission of their annual reports for the year under review. The best performers are rewarded based on their level of compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Introduced in 2011, the FiRe Awards are organized and held annually by the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Uganda (ICPAU), in partnership with  the  Capital Markets  Authority (CMA), the Uganda Securities Exchange (USE) and the New Vision (media partner).
