The International Credit Insurance & Surety Association (ICISA) provides a forum for the continuous exchange of ideas and information, in order to improve and develop the specialised service its members give the business world. This includes the exchange of views and experience about trading conditions and developments in particular industrial and trade sectors as well as as markets, the exchange of information about credit risks and co-operation through reinsurance arrangements, particularly in export transactions. ICISA was established in Paris in 1928 as the International Credit Insurance Association (ICIA) In 2001 the name was changed to the International Credit Insurance & Surety Association, to reflect the fact that more than half of its members were by then (also) involved in the underwriting of surety business. ICISA commemorated its 75th anniversary in 2003. From its inception until 1999, the Association was based in Switzerland, where it is still registered under Swiss Civil Code.
