HISTORY Represents Shipbrokers, Ship Owners, Managers and Agents Founded in 1911,in London by Members of the Baltic Exchange due to the increasing low standards amongst shipbrokers at the time. The Institute was awarded a Royal Charter in 1920 by King George V. And became The Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers The Charter was amended in 1984 to open the membership to companies and non-British subjects. As a result, the Institute is now truly international and provides a great deal of opportunity for networking.

SA Branch History A South African Shipbrokers Association was formed in 1965, but due to the situation in South Africa at the time, it was not recognised by the ICS. In those years South Africa was isolated, and there was no official communication between ICS and the Head office in London. It was only in 1994, when South Africa held its first democratic election that the current South Africa Branch of ICS was formed ( ICSSA). In the first year 34 students sat the ICS tutorship exams
