Minimum Number of Certified Public Accountants to Be Selected Next Year Increased to 1250
The Financial Services Commission held a Certified Public Accountant Qualification System Deliberation Committee meeting and announced on the 23rd that the minimum number of CPAs to be selected in 2024 has been set at 1,250.
This is an increase of 150 from this year's minimum selection number of 1,100. The FSC stated, "We considered the demand not only from accounting firms but also from non-accounting firms," adding, "Since non-accounting firms are still facing difficulties in hiring CPAs, it is necessary to actively expand the supply of CPAs."
