The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) was incorporated by Royal Charter in May 1880 following the coming together of six local societies of accountants in London, Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield. The Institute received a Supplemental Charter in 1948. As a chartered body, the Institute operates primarily in the public interest

The Institute is the largest professional accountancy body in Europe with 132,000 members running and advising businesses across all economic sectors. Widely respected as an expert commentator on business and industry issues, the ICAEW spans 165 countries and counts the majority of the FTSE CEOs and FDs as members. Over 15,000 members live and work outside the UK. The Institute also has some 9,000 students.

The Institute is the largest member of the Consultative Committee of Accountancy Bodies (CCAB), a grouping of the UK's six professional accountancy bodies, and has a significant representational role with government, the European Commission and influential worldwide bodies.

Institute strategy and policies are determined by a council and committees of volunteers. The Institute is managed on a day-to-day basis by the chief executive and three executive directors.
