International Chamber of Commerce (ICC)

ICC is the world’s largest business organisation, representing companies, chambers of commerce and business associations across more than 170 countries. Founded in 1919, the International Chamber of Commerce works to promote international trade, responsible business conduct and open global markets through advocacy, rulemaking and policy development. The organisation is widely recognised for creating globally accepted trade and banking standards, including the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (UCP 600), Incoterms and other frameworks that support international commerce and trade finance operations.

ICC plays an important role in the global trade ecosystem by bringing together banks, corporates, regulators, multilateral institutions and policymakers to address issues affecting trade, payments and supply chains. Its work spans trade finance, digital trade, sustainability, dispute resolution, anti corruption initiatives and global business policy. Through its commissions, industry guidance and events, ICC continues to shape international standards that underpin modern trade and treasury operations worldwide.
