Frim ratings - Imran - 12-23-2003 is there any site for pakistani firms rating........? imran - jbladeus - 12-23-2003 What does this site seem to you, my friend? <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle> ________________________ Arrrgh... it sure's gonna be mighty rough sailin' today ... mates! - sumaaan - 12-23-2003 http//www.accountancy.com.pk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=39 - Evolution - 12-23-2003 The link posted by Sumaaan contains an individual's rating to different firms and there can ofcourse be biased built in to them. What I would like to know if there is any site basing the ratings of firms on actual research? - jbladeus - 12-23-2003 There cant be any scientific ratings for Pakistani firms because they are not bound by any law to publicly announce their number of clients or financial results. So the only ratings we can give are based purely on conjecture. ________________________ Arrrgh... it sure's gonna be mighty rough sailin' today ... mates! - sumaaan - 12-27-2003 As far as I remember, there was one online accountancy magazine which ranked firms from all over the world... As soon as I find the link, I'll post it. Edited by - sumaaan on Dec 27 2003 010039 AM - sumaaan - 12-27-2003 http//www.accountancymagazine.com/ this website ranks firms statistically. - jbladeus - 12-27-2003 Sumaaan Ive been to this site and also at accountancyage.com, but these websites give the ratings of top firms for UK. Similarly, there are a few american websites which give global ratings for firms. Imran's query was about local ratings for which data is non-existant. We can only hope and pray for the day when pakistani firms start announcing their financial results so that local ratings could also be established. But then, why would they.... ? Ratings would mean an environment of transparency and open and healthy competition among firms, and these buddhas want nothing of these. ________________________ Arrrgh... it sure's gonna be mighty rough sailin' today ... mates! - zubair - 12-28-2003 Hi Guybrush Even in UK, Partnerships dont disclose their fee income. The fee income as compiled by the website (accountancy) is estimated. However, with the recent changes in legislation and regulatory framework this information is beginning to appear. For example, LLPs and Limited companies are required to disclose such information by law. But generally much of the profession is still being operated in the form of partnership and fee income is all estimated. Thanks zubair |
