There are two logics, parent firm and a member firm, both have difference. AFF , Ford Rhodes and Taseer Hadi are member firms of PwC, E & Y and KPMG respectively. None of them is a subsidiary. That means they use name of the international firms but they cant have their partner deputed/seconded or share major portion of revenue.

The do share the working style and methodology but they do not report in any way.

U can do training in USA regarding their degree which is CPA. I guess u are a new one in this fields.

Yep.. AFF - was a British India firm (and an AFF also operates in India,.. and is an associate/member of another Big4)

So was Ford Rhodes of FRSH a British India firm,.. SH is Sidat Hyder. which you may know got merged with FRSM post the Anderson demise.

You can train in the US, but I don't think any firms offer Work visas in the US to do that..
