Chartered Certified Accountant

Chartered Certified Accountant (Designatory letters ACCA), or the Fellow Chartered Certified Accountant (Designatory letters FCCA), is a UK legally protected term and belongs to the British qualified accountancy designation offered by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (Or known as ACCA) to accountancy worldwide who complete a series of fourteen examinations including financial accounting, management accounting, financial audit, taxation , company law, financial management, management information systems and strategic management, and work for at least three years in the accountancy related works supervised by a qualified Chartered Certified Accountant or a member of an accountancy or audit body recognised by law.

Since Chartered Certified Accountant is a British qualified accountancy qualification with Royal Charter granted by Her Majesty the Queen, so it is deemed to hold equivalent-level qualifications and advertisements for jobs often state that an organisation is looking for a qualified accountant with Royal Charter in United Kingdom. Moreover, there are 110,000 Chartered Certified Accountants and 260,000 students in 170 countries.

There is no legal requirement for an accountant to be a paid-up member of an accounting body. Unlike the Law Society, which can legally stop a solicitor from practising, accountancy institutes do not have such authority, except in the areas of audit and insolvency where practioners must hold appropriate registrations. In addition individuals who describe themselves as Chartered Certified Accountants must be a member of the ACCA and, if in practice, must comply with additional regulations such as holding insurance and submitting to inspections.


An Extensive Range of Services Provided

In United Kingdom, Chartered Certified Accountants originally worked only in public practices, selling advice and services to other individuals and businesses, but today in addition many work within private corporations and government bodies. Furthermore, according to European Union's Mutual Recognition Directive, Chartered Certified Accountant is EU legally recognized accountancy qualification and could practice in all member countries of the European Union, European Economic Area and Switzerland. (For more details regarding the legal recognizations of Chartered Certified Accountant qualification worldwide, please refer to the page of ACCA.)

Since Chartered Certified Accountants are independent business advisers, they are in a position to help the clients build and develop their businesses. Chartered Certified Accountants can offer an extensive range of services. Some of the types of services they may offer are listed below.

ACCA has a register of expert witnesses who meet stringent criteria - all hold ACCA practising certificates, have undertaken suitable litigation training, have had experience of acting as an expert witness, and have been able to provide references from two solicitors who have engaged them.


C. Insolvency work

If the clients are facing the possibility of personal bankruptcy or corporate insolvency, an ACCA licensed insolvency practitioner can provide the clients with invaluable advice. If professional advice is sought as soon as the signs of trouble appear, then insolvency/bankruptcy may be avoided. If the clients are a trade creditor and are concerned about a debtor or have been told that a debtor is insolvent, a licensed insolvency practitioner can investigate and advise on the best course of action. To become an ACCA licensed insolvency practitioner, stringent criteria must be met and an ongoing experience requirement must be achieved if the licence is to be renewed each year.
