Interesting fact about the number of qualified accountants.
Permalink Closed


Hi all,

in my reading today I came accross an interesting fact about IFAC which is a bit of an eye opener to our profession.

IFAC represents 160 accountancy bodies in 120 countries representing 2.5 million accountants.

2,500,000!!!! I didn't realise that there were anywhere near that number of accountants... Or 160 accountancy bodies for that matter.

Just one of those little facts that you come accross that you feel obliged to share even though it doesn't actually relate to anything useful... Don't even think that it's one that's ever likely to come up in a pub quiz.

All the best,

Shaun.
