Become a retired member

CIMA grants full remission of fees to retired members.

If you have been a fully qualified ACMA / FCMA member for at least 20 years and are fully retired, you can apply for remission of fees under members' regulation 1.8. This is permanent so there is no need to contact us every year.

What do I need to do?

To apply for remission, please write to us, either by letter or email, telling us of your circumstances.

If you are granted remission under 1.8 then you can either:

• Choose to pay no subscription fee. You will still be able to use the letters FCMA or ACMA after your name, and vote at our annual general meeting. You will only receive the annual report and accounts, and the annual returns form, which includes a proxy voting slip.
• Choose to pay a reduced subscription fee (GBP51 for 2013). You will still receive Financial Management magazine as well as our annual report and accounts, and all the other information we send out. You will also keep your rights as a member.

If you do not qualify under these guidelines, you may qualify for a temporary reduced subscription fee. To find out more, please refer to our reduced subscription guidelines.
