ACCA License for Audit practice in PK - waqar - 10-20-2004

Should ACCA be allowed to practice Audit in pakistan?
How it will affect ICAP?
comments?

Its not a question of should ? but more of by when? i think they should be; given they complete the required training requirements, perhaps ICAP can design a TAX/LAW variant paper specifically for ACCA's to sit for before they can get their practising license ! (ICAP viz a viz their demand and supply doctrine)

It will simply be an attack on Monopoly of ICAP. Babas e ICAP will never let this happen. But in my personal opinion ACCAs must be allowed to work as Practicing Auditors in Pakistan, enabling us to exactly compare both the professional bodies in Paki environment.

It is not the matter of affiliation/membership of any certain accounting body. Any intitute / association which provides the required level of education & training to its members & students should be allowed to issue license for audit. I want to clear that the word chartered accountants can be used for of members of ICAMPs as well because it was created by the act of parliment. Mr Eharar in some part of wolrd CMAs have also been allowed to work as public accountants after they met standards of traing & education.

Nopes mirza sb. members of ICMAP 'can be' called but 'should not be' called chartered accoutants. It doesnt suit them. (kidding)
Even in Pakistan the CMAs are allowed to work as public accountants, they can audit the financial statements of companies, (the crieteria is there which i dont know).

In past ICMAP's members were allowed to audit financial statements of private limited companies having paid up capital of 3 million rupees or more. Section 254 of companies ordinance.

This permission has been drawn back whatever may be the reason.

- Pracs - 10-30-2004

The reason was ICAP ofcourse, who lobbied with the ministry to revoke the right to sign audit reports... ICAP is the bIG GUY in Pakistan, the question is for how long ??

Can anybody tell me how many financial audit were conducted by ICMAP's members before the permission was withdrawn? What is their share in cost audit?

- Pracs - 11-08-2004

I am sure there were'nt many, but these things take time... It might have picked of had the ACMA's got a chance to look at this career prosepctive. Many ACMA's and myself came to know about it only when it got revoked.

Mr. Pracs To know whether opputunity to audit was available or not you only had to go through companies ordinance which was part of syllabus of all accounting bodies in Pakistan. Anyway do anybody has statistics about the mandatory cost audit of specfied inductries conducted by ACMAs or firms of ACMAs.
