| International firms | These include the largest global financial holding companies who make extensive use of the services of the Association. Their interests are broad including primary and secondary market practices, legal and documentation and the like and also stretch to a wider geographic area. Their views are represented in a majority of ICMA committees and play an important role in the shaping of regulatory policies both on a country wide and regional level.
The additional contribution includes the annual subscription of three members belonging to the same group of companies as the member making the additional contribution. If these firms are not currently members, they must apply for, and be admitted to membership of ICMA in due course. |
