Lets say ACCA and ACA are two faces of the same coin,.. in coutries like Singapore a maximum number of subjects for ACCA and Singaporian CPA are the same, so what most people do is, sit for one exam (and the additional papers for the other) and earn both degrees simultaneously !

I think something like this is eventually going to happen in Pakistan too. Most people are doing it now too... I see it more as complimenting each other than supplementing !

I know people who are exclusively CA or ACCA (or studying exclusively for either) are not going to agree and will continue to debate the issue.. which they are most welcome to... (since that is why we are here)

However, I would be interested in hearing what ACA + ACCA memebers of thid forum have to say...

Just some news on recent ACCA developments on a worldwide basis.....

Nearly 68,000 new students and 8,000 members joined ACCA last year, making a global total of over 240,000 students and nearly 105,000 members.
The new total signifies growth of 9% for students and 6% for members on the 2003 figures and represents outstanding performance in markets around the world.

During 2004, ACCA gained over 16,400 new students in the UK and nearly 2,500 in Ireland, while central and eastern Europe witnessed over 15% growth in student numbers. Almost 15,000 students joined in greater China, Malaysia and Singapore; over 7,000 in Pakistan; in Africa, student levels grew by 10%; in south Asia by nearly 25% and in the Middle East by 30%. ACCA now has 50,575 members in its home UK market, representing 48% of the overall membership.

ACCA’s chief executive, Allen Blewitt, said “These results demonstrate the global popularity of ACCA’s qualifications. ACCA delivers quality professional training that equips its students with skills that are proven to meet the needs of employers across the spectrum of business, government and practising audit firms.

“We now have over 6,500 global employers accredited for providing ACCA training, and over 385 tuition providers for students. We also now have joint examination schemes with local bodies in 21 countries. These represent the foundations that will sustain the ACCA success story around the world.”

Ref to Mr lion king's post.

Can you compare the examination system of CA and ACCA. There is hell of difference between them. Have you seen choice in the papers of ICAP? You people get the books of ATFL only, and you can cover all the syllabus and accordingly attempt all the paper. Unlike you, we have to study at least 3-4 books for each subject and after that we have no surety that full paper will be attempted. How can you say that ACCA is better than CA.

Compare the policies of articleship. I have seen many students of ACCA working in thier own colleges as liabrarian to complete their 3 years articleship. Is this not rediculous?

When section 254 of Companies Ordinance says that only CA can be the auditor, then you people get annoyed, this is bcz CAs get polished through a systemetic process, not like ACCA who can complete his 3 years articles no matter as a librarian/receptionist.
If ACCAs were the best than CAs then they would have made their place in Pakistan so far!

ICAP is the best.
