The Accounting Profession in British West Africa

Researcher: Uche


The Report

This report traces the development of the accounting profession in Ghana, Nigeria and Sierra Leone. The report raises important questions about the role of professional bodies in enhancing or possibly inhibiting economic development in developing countries. In particular, to what extent do the professional accounting qualifications, both of indigenous and international bodies, meet the needs of developing nations? This is a vital question as international bodies seek to grow their global membership.

The author argues that a major failure in the region has been the inability of the professional bodies to train and develop sufficient accounting manpower relevant to the level of economic development and concludes with recommendations for the region.
