The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN) is a professional accountancy body in Nigeria. It is one of the two professional accountancy associations with regulatory authority in Nigeria, the other being the Association of National Accountants of Nigeria (ANAN).[1] The relationship between the two organizations has been tense. In 2007 ICAN attempted to have a bill declaring ANAN void.[2]
