AAT in South Africa
The South African Institute of Chartered Accountants in South Africa decided to sponsor the AAT program and expand it in South Africa since 2011. AAT(SA) has no signatory powers for any of its South African members, this is because there is not sufficient audit content within the qualification offered. SAICA and AAT are working towards gaining authority in a number of other areas, such as Commissioner of Oaths and Review status. This sort of authority does take time to approve and the new South African Company Legislation is also not yet finalised.
