International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), founded in 1919, is the
voice of world business championing the global economy as a force
for economic growth, job creation and prosperity.
As national economies are so closely interwoven, government
decisions have far stronger international repercussions than in
the past. ICC - the world's only truly global business organization
responds by being more assertive in expressing business views. It
promotes an open international trade and investment system and the
market economy. Today, it groups thousands of member companies,
chambers of commerce and business associations across the world.
Business leaders and experts from its membership establish the
business stance on broad issues of trade and investment as well
as on vital technical and sectoral subjects. ICC has unrivalled
expertise in defining practices that govern the conduct of business
across borders and have become part of the fabric of international
trade. ICC activities also cover a broad spectrum, from arbitration
and dispute resolution to making the case for open trade and the
market economy system, business self-regulation, fighting corruption
or combating commercial crime.
ICC has direct access to national governments all over the world
through its national committees. The organization's Paris-based
international secretariat feeds business views into intergovernmental
organizations on issues that directly affect business operation.
