As a participant in this stream, you will be expected to pursue a professional accountancy qualification, usually either ACCA or ACA. You will be required to attempt two exams per sitting, and you may qualify for exemptions depending on what modules you undertook as part of your degree.

During your four rotations, you will become equipped with in-depth product knowledge, technical expertise, enhanced system capabilities, and strong soft skills such as business essentials, effective communication, project management, client service delivery, leadership, and so much more …

By the end of the two-year programme, you will have received a wide range of exposure across four different products: Real Estate, Corporate Services, Family Office, and Fund Services, enabling you to choose which is most aligned to your skills and interests.
