Our Mission
WHAT IS ASBA? ASBA is the Association of Ship Brokers & Agents (U.S.A.), Inc., established in 1934. It is a membership trade association bringing together companies and individuals doing business in the U.S.A. and Canada as ship brokers and/or ship agents. As the Association has expanded over the years, the stated "Purpose" has remained the same. It is to advance and foster the ideals and standards of professional conduct and practices. It is a medium through which members with common interests can communicate HOW DOES ASBA OPERATE?
Day-to-day activities are handled from the Association's office by the Secretary under the supervision and direction of the Officers and the Board of Governors. The working committees of the Association are: Agency Affairs; Charter Party and Documentary; Entertainment; Government Affairs, Membership, Education, Dry Cargo and Tanker. The Ethics Committee is available on a "when-called-upon" basis.
