forensic accounting

Morning All

Does anyone do this type of work as it really interests me.

i have looked it up on google, but it just points me to firms in america. i am after information on what qualifications are needed. i was looking to do CIMA after the AAT, but alot of the adverts i have seen have asked for ACCA.

can anyone shed any light or point me in the right direction where to look.

thanks in advance

Good thread, it is an interesting subject so will watch with interest.

I thought the chartered bodies would do additional add on courses for this or other things such as liquidation?

It sounds more glamourous than it is. Essentially it is auditing under another name. If you want to get into forensic accounting then either try and get a job at a large firm that does a lot of this work or get a job where you will do a lot of statutory audit work.

ok, i was looking at the police force side of things, but cannot find anywhere how to get into that at all.
