You should try US CPA, because:

- CPA is provided by one of the 55 State Boards of Accountancy in the US!
- CPA certificate is like having a black-belt in accounting
- CPA gives you international recognition
- CPA is an easy 4 part exam, most of the content will be an overlap in your case
- With CPA, you can be the best of both worlds - IFRS and US GAAP
- The scope is really good if you're willing to work with an MNC
