Our chamber was founded on September 22, 1987, by traditional companies which provide commercial information to significant sectors of the Argentine economy, especially commerce, industry and finance.

It has been authorized by the Inspección General de Justicia de la Nación (Superintendence of Corporations, also known by its abbreviation IGJ in Spanish) by resolution Nº 000319 on May 5, 1988, and it succeeded in keeping unscathed its foundational principles.

In its articles of incorporation: “…that come to formalize a civil nonprofit corporation constituted by the companies they represent, therefore they set up the Cámara de Empresas de Información Comercial (Chamber of Commercial Information Companies or CEIC by its abbreviation in Spanish), which purpose is to raise the profile of the product and encourage its use, whatever way it may be, in every commercial transaction, by making the member companies responsible for that categorization on the basis of their practices and corporate behavior; to exert as much pressure as possible on all domestic economic sectors to eradicate secrecy and piracy demanding that the commercial information be provided by reliable companies, members of the Chamber or not; to join the entity that, by bringing together the Chambers of Service Companies, represents the main issues of such important sector of the national economy.”
