Hi, i cleared CA in June'09 and have joined in one of the big 4 CA firm.
I'm currently into statutory audit of UK Mutual Funds.
After getting exposure to company audit through my articleship training and post CA, i got good exposure to mutual funds. Keeping this exposure to different types of audit, now i want to get into the field of Forensic Accounting and Fraud Detection using IT and CAATs permanently.
I'm much interested in this field, could you please guide me about the job opportunities in this field and what are the key skills sets required.
Please note i am planning to join Forensic Accounting and Fraud Detection using IT and CAATs training offered by our ICAI institute.
