If members cannot use the description or letters in the other countries or jurisdictions without infringement, then the institute may authorise the use of lawful alternatives in those countries and jurisdictions. In particular, where appropriate, members may add the suffix ‘(UK)’ after the description ‘Chartered Management Accountant’ or after the letters ‘FCMA’ or ‘ACMA’ (Byelaw 5)
