A future in jeopardy
Such a question and possible analysis is missing from the recent report by the Public Oversight Board for Accountancy (POBA). Professional bodies face a variety of challenges that are rarely debated at professional meetings.

In response, the professional bodies have changed their syllabuses to produce more analytical accountants. However, this is under challenge from universities. Increasingly, graduates with MBA and MSc qualifications hold senior corporate positions. Such qualifications do not impose annual membership fees.
The diverse membership of accountancy bodies makes it difficult to formulate policies that can serve the entire membership. A large number of accountants working in industry and commerce take their instructions from directors rather than professional bodies.

Combining the 2 views in a matrix results in 4 possible combinations:
1. Support (low, low). IT has little relevance and simply supports existing processes
2. Turnaround (currently low, high in the future). IT will be a key feature of future strategic planning.
3.
