Italian Yachting Professionals
Italian Yacht Brokers Association
AYBI (Associazione Yacht Brokers Italiani – Italian Yacht Brokers Association), is committed to promote and maintain top-level professional expertise, uprightness, communication skills, and high standards in the field of maritime brokerage, in terms of chartering or buying and selling of yachts.
All AYBI member brokers boast a long-standing experience and a successful background on the international market. We offer our clients all the advantages stemming from joining our strongpoints, know-how, highly relevant personal connections, and mutual support.
We commit ourselves to abide by a strict Code of Ethics to warrant that our companies work for our clients in full respect of the law and of the rules and regulations in force. Our main goals are to keep up top-quality service standards, improve our knowledge and awareness within the industry, and act as a “liaison” between our Members and other groups and/or associations in the trade.
