Of its achievements, the ICAJ prides itself on its commitment to transparency and continues to hold its banner high as a body synonymous with integrity and sound professional conduct. And now, after a generation of solid success the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Jamaica, now stands ideally poised to lead the profession of Accountancy into a new era of global challenges.
