　　SUMMARY OF CHANGES TO P1

　　RATIONALE FOR CHANGES TO STUDY GUIDE PAPER P1

　　ACCA periodically reviews its qualification syllabuses so that they fully meet the needs of stakeholders such as employers,students,regulatory and advisory bodies and learning providers.As a result of the latest review,ACCA is making changes to the ACCA Qualification effective from June 2011.With each syllabus is included a specific rationale for these changes as far as each examination syllabus and study guide is concerned.

　　As a result of specific feedback about the ACCA qualification,some significant stakeholders expressed a view that there needed to be more general high level risk management covered within the ACCA Qualification.It was decided that this area is best augmented within the two risk sections of the P1,Professional Accountant syllabus.The main additions are summarised in Table 1 below:

　　In addition the following new books will be listed to support additional areas:
