CCAB has published a report, The Accountancy Profession in the UK and Ireland, prepared on our behalf by Oxford Economics.
This second report includes data for both the UK and the Republic of Ireland (the 2017 report was restricted in scope to the UK). The report seeks to demonstrate the value of accountants to both the UK and Irish economies in terms of commerce, number of members, number of accountancy firms, GDP contribution, employment, tax revenues and purchase and export of accounting services.
The report concludes that the accountancy profession plays a critical role in delivering important professional services to all sectors of the economy.
