Our members provide financial knowledge and guidance based on the highest professional, technical and ethical standards. We develop and support individuals, organisations and communities to help them achieve long-term, sustainable economic value.

Because of us, people can do business with confidence.


Key Facts About ICAEW

Name : ICAEW (The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales)
Founded : 1880
Headquarters : Chartered Accountants' Hall, London
Offices : UK, Beijing, Brussels, Dubai, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore
Members : Over 136,000 chartered accountants around the world




Vision, Mission and Values

Our vision is for ICAEW to be acknowledged as leading the global accountancy and finance profession, so people can do business with confidence.

We will achieve this by fulfilling the objectives set out in our Royal Charter. These are to:
  • Advance the theory and practice of accountancy, finance, business and commerce.
  • Recruit, educate and train a body of members skilled in accountancy and finance.
  • Preserve at all times the professional independence of accountants.
  • Maintain high standards of practice and professional conduct by all members.
  • Advance the profession of accountancy.


We believe in acting responsibly, in the best interests of our members and the general public. We act with integrity, creating effective partnerships with organisations and communities worldwide to ensure the highest technical, professional and ethical standards.



History

Although accountancy is hundreds of years old, it wasn’t until after the middle of the 19th century that the professional accountant became recognised. ICAEW was granted a Royal Charter by Queen Victoria in 1880, giving our members the right to use the designation ‘chartered accountant’.

Many of the founding fathers of the ‘Big Four’ accountancy firms were early ICAEW presidents - names such as Arthur Cooper, Frederick Whinney, William Welch Deloitte and Sir William Peat.

  • 1880 On 11 May ICAEW was granted a Royal Charter recognising its 'pre-eminence, stability and permanence' as well as defining its public interest remit.
  • 1893 Chartered Accountants' Hall, in the City of London, was completed to the design of the eminent Victorian architect, Sir John Belcher RA.
  • 1919 Mary Harris Smith is admitted to ICAEW, becoming the first female chartered accountant in the world.
  • 1930 The first extension to Chartered Accountant's Hall is built by J.J. Joass.
  • 1970 The extended and new building at Chartered Accountants’ Hall is opened by Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother.
  • 1999 Baronness Noakes is the first woman to become president of ICAEW.
  • 2006 ICAEW are appointed by the European Commission to study the implementation of IFRS throughout the European Union.




What We Do?

We provide our members with knowledge and guidance based on the highest ethical and technical standards. We shape opinion, understanding and delivery to ensure the highest standards in business and in the public interest.




Who We Work With?

Partnerships are central to the way we do business. They’re central to our training of chartered accountants, and consultancy work in emerging economies. They’re central to our promotion of global standards within an effective regulatory framework, and to our commercial relationships.

By building long-term relationships with successful organisations we are able to benefit our members individually and the Institute as a whole.
