Help Needed...Plz - shan - 08-23-2004
Hi everyone,
i would like to ask that whats the diffrence between ACCA UK stream and International stream. Which stream should i go for UK or international?

hello shan
yaar scene ye he ke ACCA UK stream is for uk people or if u wanna to work in uk its uk accounting and it include all the rules followed in uk for law and taxation.international stream is for us .

I think that one should go for the int'l stream since, EU is moving towards IFRS itself, there is a big demand for IAS/IFRS specialists in the UK/Mainland. Please correct me if I am under the wrong impression.
IFRS will be the global standards of the future..

dear all
there isn't much diff b/w the two and you can always update urself!!!
i studied IASs in Pakistan before moving to UK - then studied FRSs and SSAPs - couldn't find much diff except Retirement Benefits & Deferred Tax and few minor issues. Now i am planning to do DipIFRS to update myself again - just for my own sake.
for a beginner i would advise u to go straight for IAS coz thats what the future is.
