Let me put it this way. Australian CPA is the only CPA qualification eligible for the American IQEX exam. Not HKICPA, ICPAS or MICPA etc. And the Americans put it on par with a selected clutch of CAs. Even your beloved ACCA or ICAEW is not eligible.
"Currently, only members of the following professional bodies are eligible for the IQEX:
Certified Practicing Accountants of Australia
Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia
Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants
Instituto Mexican de Contadores Publicos
Chartered Accountants in Ireland
New Zealand Institute of Chartered Accountants
Candidates who are not members of one of these organizations and want to be licensed as a CPA in the U.S., must pass the Uniform CPA Examination."
NABSA
Perhaps it's you who doesn't have much knowledge with regards to American MNCs. I however, am in the fortunate position to be involved in hiring accountants into one.
All in all, in terms of professional recognition on the other side of the Atlantic, you are talking rubbish.
What about ICAA- they are member of GAA *better than CPA rite"Currently, only members of the following professional bodies are eligible for the IQEX:

Well, in big4, news has been going around that ppl say cpa aust is just like photocopy professional cert. so far none of my friend failed it. i am looking to know someone fail. it seems like no one fail and no standard at all.
FOR those who have never been to aust and did an australian offshore degree, please note that all big4 in aust requires u to do CA instead of CPA. meaning to say, CPA is time to close down even the local big4 urges their employee to take CA.
for those who love their cpa so much, i strongly advise you to have a look at other professional courses. From an academic point of view ICAA is way better than CPA. Besides, it is much more practical because the assessment isn't just based on a freaking final exam.
those who passed CPA and calling himself as an accountant, please hide your qualification if u met a CA (Aust). thx.
stop fighting here. please grow up.
