Towards the Great Desideratum. The Unification of the Accountancy Bodies in England, 1870-1880

Researcher: Walker


The Report

This monograph reports the results of a third ICAS sponsored project on the history of the organisation of the accountancy profession in the UK. Previous studies in the series examined the reasons why rationalisation schemes failed, this monograph reports on the factors which contributed to a successful unification.

The study seeks to understand how and why five local and national organisations of accountants in England subsumed their ideological and status differences to form the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales in 1880.
