Gambler,
You are talking about two different professions, being an investment banker or a professional auditor/accountant. These are specialities within itself. Although ACA (UK) may be widely accepted in Pakistan in the industry and the Big 4, Working for a bank like GS etc. would ofcourse be a specialisation well sought after in Pakistan, within the investment banking industry.
Well, just one thing out of my experience of the Pakistani market/economy. As an ACA you would have a much wider market to go out to and ofcourse more possibilities. As an investmenet banker / CIMA you will have some what restricted options. Having said that ofcourse, like many other industries Investment banking is picking up in Pakistan too.
