Arising from the completion by one of the Member Representatives of their three-year appointment, the Baltic Exchange is calling for nominations to serve on the Baltic Membership Council (BMC).  The Representative appointed will take office as of April 2021.
 
Open to any current member of the Baltic Exchange, nominees should possess the knowledge and experience necessary to discharge their responsibilities. All nominations will be vetted by the BMC before approval by the Baltic Exchange.  Member Representatives serve a term of two year and may be reappointed for an additional 12 months by the BMC.
 
The BMC is the body that oversees the Baltic Exchange in relation to its membership services, associations carrying the Baltic Exchange name and its relationship with Baltic Exchange members. As well as considering new membership applications, it provides assistance to the Baltic Exchange Limited (BEL) in its governance function. Members of the Council also act as ambassadors of the Baltic Exchange. 
 
Meeting are held approximately eight times a year and normally take place at noon UK time – attendance via video conference is acceptable.
