As part of its Centennial Celebrations in 2018, ICAZ has published a book on its first 100years. The Focus is on the INSTITUTE AND ITS brand Carrier the CA. The ICAZ Centennial  Book is a chronicle of the 100-year history of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Zimbabwe (ICAZ). It celebrates the people and organisations that contributed to what ICAZ is today. 

As ICAZ maps its journey to the next century, various stakeholders through the book chronicle their experience since they began to engage with either the Institute or its members. Sentiments of the ICAZ brand are expressed as well as what should ICAZ do to enhance it, to make the current CA product the business partner of value.

The contribution of the CAs to organizations and business in general is discussed. The ICAZ drive to make the CA profession a gender balanced Institute is reviewed as well as perspectives of the female Chartered Accountant in their endeavor to reach their full potential given the many demands of the female life.

ICAZ and/or its member’s contribution to the Public Sector recovery as professionals and citizens is analyzed as well as the necessary steps to make a meaningful change.

The book was launched in 2020 in Harare. At the launch, awards were presented to organisations and institutions that have been associated with ICAZ over the past century, from high schools that have produced the largest number of CA’s to the ICAZ “all whether friends” who have financially supported ICAZ over the years as sponsors. Chartered Accountants who form significant parts of the ICAZ history were also be recognised. For those who are deceased their family representatives were invited to receive the award.

The Centennial book is a chronicle of the social, economic, business, and developmental history of Zimbabwe through the eyes of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Zimbabwe. Personal stories, historical anecdotes and a mosaic of pictures brings the story to life. Rich lessons in longevity, brand sustainability, excellence, and integrity.
