About BIMCO
An Ocean of Expertise.
From 16 to 18 February 1905, 112 distinguished gentlemen assembled
in Copenhagen and formed
what is today the world’s largest and most diverse private
shipping organisation. BIMCO has come a
long way since then and the organisation’s agenda today
differs greatly from that of the past.
However, its objective of uniting shipping interests and pursuing
the issues affecting its members
remain as clear now as they were at the start.
Throughout it all, BIMCO has consistently managed to be both
flexible and supportive of its
members’ interests, capable of proactive action and
responding quickly to new priorities in a fast-
changing maritime environment in an often uncertain world.
Today, BIMCO’s membership spans 123 countries and includes
more than 2,550 companies. Owner
members alone control 65% of the world merchant fleet, while
1,500 brokers and agents and 100
club and associate members complete BIMCO’s international
coverage. It is on behalf of these
members that BIMCO carries out its tasks - ranging from involvement
in international debates on
issues affecting the industry to providing assistance in recovering
unpaid balances.
