​Accountancy is the process of measuring, processing, and communicating financial information about an organisation. This includes things like maintaining and analyzing financial records and preparing financial statements and cash flow projections. Accountancy is a critical function for any organisation, as it helps to provide insight into the financial health and performance of a business. 
 
There are different types of accountancy, such as financial accounting, management accounting, and tax accounting. Financial accounting focuses on providing financial information to external stakeholders, such as investors and creditors. Management accounting focuses on providing financial information to internal stakeholders, such as management and employees, to help them make informed decisions. Tax accounting focuses on ensuring compliance with tax laws and regulations and effectively managing a business's tax liability. 
 
The field of accountancy is also regulated, and there are different professional qualifications, such as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) or a Chartered Accountant (CA), that are awarded to those who pass rigorous exams and meet experience requirements.  CPAs and CAs must comply with the professional standards issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board (APESB).
 
Overall, accountancy is the process of measuring, processing and communicating financial information about an organisation, it encompasses different types of accountancy, such as financial accounting, management accounting and tax accounting, and it is a regulated field with different professional qualifications. It is a critical function for any organization as it helps to provide insight into the financial health and performance of the business.
