NEWS Consulting giant Accenture is to let loose on traders this afternoon as it is set to start trading as a public company on the New York Stock Exchange. The company raised almost $1.7bn in an IPO by selling 115 million shares at $14.50.

Accenture will trade under the New York Stock Exchange symbol ACN.
