For doing accounting and finance, why does it show arts as the stream in Singapore?

Many universities, including those in Singapore, group Accounting and Finance under the "Arts" or "Social Sciences" faculty instead of "Science" or "Commerce." This is because these subjects emphasize analytical, theoretical, and managerial skills rather than scientific or technical methods.

Seeing "Arts" as the stream is a common academic classification and does not affect the finance or accounting content of the course.
