hi guyz,
got some news.
According to Sir Sajid Kapadia (the famous ACCA f8 teacher), ACCA will being ousted from Pakistan within the next 1.5-2 years. He said that this is due to ICAP fearing ACCA. So no more ACCA in Pakistan after this time. he says that alot of students are leaving CA and joining ACCA (for whatever reason)
another reason i can think of is that in this time of recession, where a CA demands, say 60k, an ACCA with the same set of skills would be prepared to do the job for half of this. maybe this is a reason.
Now i have nothing to confirm this report but when someone like Sajid Kapadia says something, it definitely forces you to think.
does ICAP's addoption of ICAEW syllabus has something to do with it.. MAybe!!
this is not an ACCA vs CA debate and is just a healthy discussion on the validity of these claims by someone who has been in the industry for long enough to know what is going on behind the scenes.
