I believe it would be a very nice step and should be followed in Pakistan as well.

There is already a rule in Pakistan that the Government's Corporations should have two audit firms appointed for the external audit. I believe most of the corporations and Govt institutions like PIA, State Life, NBP etc are following it.
However, it does not specify that at least a non-Big 4 firm must be appointed as one of the two joint auditors. I think this should be a very good step if such a change is brought into effect.
Further, there is also a need to follow such principle in Public Interest Entities and Listed companies; at least for the bigger concerns. Let's see the future.
