The British-American Business Council (BABC) is the largest transatlantic
business network, with 25
chapters
and 2,500 member companies based in major business centers throughout North
America and the United Kingdom.
Its membership includes many of the world's largest multinationals, as
well as hundreds of middle market companies; and it enjoys the support of an
International Advisory Board which includes the Chairmen and Chief
Executives of more than 50 major multinationals as well as the UK and US
Ambassadors.
Its chapters and member companies participate in the BABC to gain access
to a broader transatlantic business network and to a wide range of
marketing, networking and business intelligence
benefits
and opportunities.
The BABC also works with government to promote a positive transatlantic
trade/investment policy environment, to assist its members in the profitable
conduct of their business; and keeps its members advised of policy issues
that may impact on their business through its
Policy Focus. It has designated BritishAmerican Business (its London/New
York chapter) to take the lead for the BABC on these issues; and a
Transatlantic Steering Committee, which includes its policy leaders in
London and Washington, DC, guides and oversees its policy program. For a

How is the BABC Governed and Administered?
The BABC is a not-for-profit membership organization. Its chapters are
independent business organizations that participate in the BABC to provide a
broader transatlantic business network and additional benefits for their
member companies.
The BABC is governed by its Board of Directors (which includes a
representative of each of its chapters) and its Executive Committee (which
includes a representative from each of its major regions, as well as its
principal officers). Its Chief Executive and Secretariat are based in New
York.
