The Ceylon Chamber of Commerce (CCC), the country’s premier business chamber with a 176-year history, has come out with a set of 10 principles to guide its approach in influencing the trajectory of the private sector and the country’s economy.

These principles, the first of its kind for a business chamber in Sri Lanka, which form the basis of the Chamber’s advocacy on pro-business policy and legislation, within a ‘nation-first’ mind-set.

The Chamber is keen to ensure that its activities, as well as its engagements within the private sector and between the private sector and the government, are based on consistent and coherent principles, instead of ad hoc stances taken from time-to-time.

The ’10 Principles’ come as part of the ongoing efforts of the Ceylon Chamber to transform the organisation’s role to stay relevant to the modern day needs of its members, the wider private sector, the government and the general public, in the evolving social, political, economic scenario.

The carving out of the 10 new principles was spearheaded by leadership team of the chamber and the Main Committee consisting of top corporate executives of the private sector drawn from diverse sectors.

It was also duly approved by the newly appointed nine-member Board of Directors of the Chamber, which replaced ‘Standing Committee’ A, under the newly enacted rules of the Chamber at its 176th AGM.
