A survey has revealed that 93 per cent of accountants in the US have seen a "heightened concern" amongst their clients because of the current situation on Wall Street, a report notes.

Speaking to Newsday, Michael Goodman, a certified public accountant specialist and member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), says: "In 2002, people felt wealthy. Their houses were going up in value, their jobs for the most part were safe and secure and they felt pretty good."

But as you may be aware, the financial situation has changed and with the need for responsible accounting potentially coming to the fore, you may be keen to take the opportunity to study for an online accounting MBA.

Meanwhile, the AICPA advises people to keep investing, stay diversified, keep calm and to consider the wider economic picture which is not purely a negative one, the news resource continues.

In related news, Fernando Montero on a Business Week blog advises potential MBA students to carefully consider which program might be right for the career path they wish to take, which could see you thoroughly researching facilities that provide an online accounting degree.
