ACCA vs CA

[mroneflower]

Hi

I am from London and ACCA qualified.

I read that some of the ppl are interested ICAEW after ACCA,whereas others are comapring ACCA(UK) with ACA(PK) and saying ACA is better than ACCA.

If ACA(PK) is better than ACCA then Y ACCA is recongised in 80 countries of the world including all in EU, Australia, NEW Zealand, Zimbabwe, South Aferica etc. On the other hands ACA(Pk) is only recognised in Pakistan.

If anyone can answer me y ACCA is recognised in 80 countries of the world and y ICAP is not, I will accept ACA (PK) is better than ACCA.

I have not understood ICAP policy, CPA(USA) is highly respectable qualification and recectly eight institutes of the world has formed GAA including CAP(USA), ICAEW, ICAI, ICAS, ICAA etc.

According to ICAP, ICAEW is a wonderful institutes with very high std. ICAEW recognised CAP(USA) then Y ICAP not. I may conclude that ICAP does what she wants to do.

Could anything let me know about ICAP marking guide and how much marks an individuals has to pass a paper.

ICAEW like ACCA awards pass in individual papers and not in whole of modules like ICAP. Sorry to say by employing this policy ICAP is not producing quality, the purpose of this policy is to pass only that much students who are required in market.

When you judge some qualification std then normally that qualification recoginition in the world is taken into account and not their monololist policies.

Kind Regards
