Accountants in Hong Kong are not just bean counters, they’re bean "growers," also. They're service providers and strategic partners who offer a high level of strategic financial analysis and support.
The potential job opportunities in corporate accounting are quite broad and non-standardized, compared with public accounting. They include financial management, financial reporting, internal auditing, management accounting, and tax planning.
Public accounting firms usually seek auditors with accounting degrees, but they also welcome graduates in other disciplines. Accountants must have good insight and judgment, integrity and ethics, commitment and stability, project management skills, innovative thinking, and skills at presenting, speaking, and business writing.
One of the professional organizations for workers in Hong Kong's financial fields is the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants. It represents the interests of its 9,000 members and promotes and facilitates communication and cooperation among them. There are several finance-related publications in Hong Kong; one specifically for foreign investors is Asian Finance.
