HI GUYS
Everyone knows top 4 firms. like
1. A.F.Ferguson
2. Ford rhodes
3. taseer hadi
4. yousuf adil
5. ???????
6. ???????
7. ???????

But what are the top 3 or4 firms after the top 4 firms(mention above).
I know that most of you people said about HUSSAIN REHMAN & co. But there is not a name of HUSSAIN REHMAN in the list of audits firms with satisfactory quality control (QCR) rating. Remember this list is available on ICAP's website.

Yes budy, I just checked the relevent list of audit firms by your given thread, & I think it might be possible that you are going on the wrong way. Its Anjum Asim Shahid Rehman & Co. you may call into the fifth position in Karachi instead of Hussain Rehman & Co.( I dont exactly know that where is Hussain Rehman & co. situated in Karachi ... Are you searching Abdul Rehman & Co.??)

Okhay .... See the following thread in which you are able to get all the approved registered Audit firms in karachi.(this was taken by the site apnakarachi.com.

If you want to know about further Top 4 firms after ranking top 4 or in other words, after A F Ferguson, Taseer Hadi Khalid, Ford Rhodes Sidat hyder & yousuf adeel, then i like to say that "it is not possible to say that who is a rapidly growing audit firms after big 4.. But in my observation some firms have gained sufficient empoyees, resources, good cleints <not probably blue chip> & atleast good structure in karachi ... which are as follows

Anjum Asim Shahid Rehman & Co.
Ebrahim & Co.
Hyder Bhimji & Co.(not structure wise [)])
Awais Hyder Zaman Rizwani & Co.
Haroon Zakaria & Co.

Its just unilateral Observation,may be i am wrong okhay ... so dont take any serious action Iron, until unless another members could give
a biased, more appropriate & realistic opinion that whether these firms are realy established in karachi or not. !

HI IMI
Sorry for being late.......Wel dear If you talking about KPMG (Taseer Hadi Khalid & Co.)then no doubt that THK & Co. is doing its job in a more flexible way & almost has gained big blue chip companies in a couple of years ( not just on ISB but also have spread its network in Karachi)...But the story is not just finished on the basis of an Audit. Certain key factors are also considerable for copmarison purposes.. like Management consultancy, Software Implementation, Multi skilled employees ( not ony CA,ACCA, CIMA, ACMA, but also have certain employees who have additional skills in software developing,ERP, CRM, IRM implementation, programming ),realistic work structure etc.

But still it is questionable to analiyse both of the firm that who is No.1 in pakistan. There is no hard & fast rule & appropriate criteria for the basis of ranking .. But in my perspective... I think both are in parallel situation only on tha basis of an audit !

It would have been so much easier, if firms announced their financial results like eleswhere in the world.

I am sure even having lost a number of clients to THK... AFF stil holds a bulk of clients expecially due to the PwC thread in there. Yes plus AFF is also the only Big 4 in Pakistan making headways in the ERP business.
