The International Capital Market Association (ICMA) is a trade association, representing over 580 members in more than 62 countries globally, who are active in the international capital market on a cross border basis. It is also distinctive amongst trade associations in representing both the buy-side and the sell-side of the industry.

ICMA works to maintain the framework of cross-border issuing, trading and investing through development of internationally accepted standard market practices, while liaising closely with governments, regulators, central banks and stock exchanges, helping to ensure that financial regulation promotes the efficiency and cost effectiveness of the international capital market.
