Is acca+ msc in applied economics and finance good enough for a strategic consulting position (maybe at big4)?

Pretty much it.

Accounting and finance undergraduate in europe I am interested in audit and strategic consulting. For the first part i am obligated to get ACCA. For the second is acca+ msc in applied econ a good path. (i am not a fun of mba so i seek alternatives with a good finance focus)

In most europeans countries it does not matter what your degree is, as long as you kicked as at it. For big 4 consulting, accounting is actually going to be huge plus on your resume. They usually do not do "real strategy" work though.
