increase in the number of
chartered accountants taking on board director roles, while chief
financial officers at 75% of the companies surveyed are also
chartered accountants.
“In the two years since the last survey
there has been a remarkable 7% increase in the proportion of
directors who are chartered accountants, from 25% to the current
