Please look up “Committee to Develop the Accountancy Sector”

The CDAS was formed by the Ministry of Finance in December 2008 to undertake a holistic review of the Singapore accountancy sector and profession, with the aim to position Singapore as a leading international centre for accountancy services and professionals. The CDAS, which is chaired by Mr. Bobby Chin, Chairman of the Singapore Totalisator Board and formerly managing partner of KPMG LLP Singapore, comprises leading members of the accounting profession, the business community, academia and the public sector.

You can find the full report on ACRA website and also all members.

Their first recommendation resulted in what you know call SCAQ.

If you read the full report, all their identified Strategic Thrusts, Goals are quite ambitious and their recommendations are solid.

But clearly the evolving expectations of the younger generation could not have been predicted back in 2009.

Historically KP is the only Big4 which pays higher based on honors class.

KPMG lets the senior in charge of each engagement to provide feedback and ratings for the team. Not getting along with your senior means PIPs and let them slack off while they push their work onto the rest of the team. Also guess where most of the seniors come from?

Anyway now in SCAQ Telegram chat. Someone asked this:
Hi, may I know if there are any updates on potential ACCAxISCA mra for mutual membership.

ISCA scaq team replied:
Hi xxxx, we are working with ACCA to explore more pathways for ACCA members towards CA (Singapore) membership. Meanwhile, ACCA members can become ISCA Associate members too. Keep a look out for our announcement within the next few months.

So yea, I guess ISCA gonna screw the pre-2020 batches further. Just a matter of abit more time.

Pre-2020 batches still around meh?

Wouldn’t most of them have left after 3 years.
