About the Lima Chamber of Commerce:

On April 20th, 2017, the Lima Chamber of Commerce commemorated its 129th anniversary. It was founded in 1888.

The Pacific War had led to a series of economic, political, and social conflicts in Peru that were experienced in the years following  1880.  Due to these events the entrepreneurs who were involved in the productive and commercial activity decided to found the Lima Chamber of Commerce in order to contribute to national reconstruction.

The LCC’s guiding principles are the defense of the private sector initiatives, the free enterprise in a social market economy, the fiscal balance, the transparent management of public resources, the legal security, investment and savings, and their adherence to democracy and respect for human rights. They have always shown their constant concern for the economic and social development of the country.

The LCC has been a pioneer of the Arbitral Justice, the Corporation Tax Collector (SUNAT’s antecedent), the Banking Act, and the establishment of the Deposit and Consignment Office that led to the founding of the National Bank and the Trade, Customs and Merchant Marine codes. 

In addition, the LCC played a key role in the basis of the General Corporation Law, the Securities Act, the Criminal Code, the Tax Code, the National Registry for Protested Bills and a large number of laws designed to encourage production, domestic and foreign trade and to strengthen the country’s tax system.
