Preaching and Practising

Article Abstract:

Advertising and publicity by chartered accountants is a controversial issue in the United Kingdom. Some advertising is descriptive and genuinely informative to the consumer. However, some advertising is persuasive and aggressive. This type of advertising should not be allowed in the service industries, particularly by professional accountants. Option One which retains status quo but defines it by specific rules of conduct rather than guidelines is the most acceptable choice. It allows advertising of the descriptive sort without leaning toward the vulgar.
