Hi,

If you compare international recognition, ACCA is a better and more recognized course than CMA. Till now, ACCA has produced over 436,000 students in 180 countries. Whereas, CMA has produced only 40,000 members and has a global presence in over 100 countries. ACCA is better enough but much older in perspective.

Also, you should consider the pass percentage and as you will see the CMA is much tougher than passing ACCA the pass percentages for CMA are near to 20% whereas pass percentages for ACCA are on an average of 40-50%. No wonder why CMAs get more salary than ACCA! .

Thank you.
