Hi all,

I am in the final stages of taking out a practising cert and audit qualification with ACCA. I will have very little trading income in the short term but based on advice, I am taking out the cert so I have it in future if needed as it is a very time consuming process.

It is likely in future that I will become an RI in a firm regulated by CAI. However I want to keep my options as open as possible and allow myself the ability to transfer to a CAI or ACCA firm in the future. Can anyone tell me based on experience whether it matters at this stage how I hold the practising cert, ie as a sole trader or through a company?
