International Chamber of Commerce
The International Chamber of Commerce (also known as the Chambre de commerce internationale) is the commercial group that is both the biggest and most represented on a global scale. Its more than 45 million members, who are spread out over more than 100 countries, have interests that span the whole private business sphere.
Ajaypal Singh Banga is currently serving as the chairman of the ICC, while John W.H. Denton AO is serving as the Secretary General.
Rule setting, conflict resolution, and lobbying for certain policies are the three primary ICC endeavours. Because the corporations and groups that make up the ICC's membership are themselves involved in international trade, the organisation has an unparalleled level of influence when it comes to formulating regulations that control how trade is carried out across national boundaries. Despite the fact that compliance with these guidelines is entirely optional, hundreds of transactions each day adhere to them, and international commerce now functions with them in place.
Over one hundred nations are represented in the global network of national committees that promotes for corporate goals at the national and regional levels. The position that the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) takes on various business problems is shaped by the expertise and experience of over 3,000 specialists who are recruited from the member firms of the ICC.
On behalf of international commerce, the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) provides support for the activities of the United Nations, the World Trade Organization, and a large number of other intergovernmental organisations, both internationally and regionally, such as the G20. The International Criminal Court (ICC) was the first institution to be given observer status and general consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council.
