Asad Ali looked to have some charisma of introducing such a change; the resrevations of members were quite similar to what I carry and I remember the detailed e-mail I sent dissenting this move as a member.
ICAP was on a road and is probably still considering this change but cannot do so until members at large do not consent for it.
People who know inside out are not in its favor; not for any of their benefit, rather for the sake of profession.
As far as increase in CA Intermediate is concerned, still there is no uncontrolled increase; yes the people who don't get through within a logical frame of time do have to face difficulties and it is natural. They will face similar difficulties even if industry move is implemented. Certainly there will be a race for multinational, big brands and no one will go for local medium/small scaled companies. And in any race survival is only for the better ones.
You just didnt pick my point where I raised the question of non-exploring of industry opportunity by ACCA and CIMA etc. Here we witnessed a very sharp chap Odyssee, an ACCA affiliate. He contacted a renowned oil refinery company for his ICAEW training placement. The HR department in response asked Odyssee, "what is this ICAEW"? They did not even know they were authorized to train under ICAEW's ACA program. So, this is the matter of preference and I wonder if industry can ever make out such a preference or create even an evnvironment for such a training program.
So, in my eyes, this appears to be merely an illusion. At least for next 5-10 years. This can happen; but for doing so very big changes will have to be made, and to my understanding we are not currently geared to make it happen.
