The Guide is a joint-project of the member societies of the Centre for European Business History (CEBH) European Association for Banking History (EABH), Gesellschaft für Unternehmensgeschichte (GUG) and the Society for European Business History (SEBH).

For historians and archivists information on the history and the archives of European companies and banks are often hard to access. The Guide aims at being a starting point for their search. It will also create contacts between historians and archivists and will allow for exchange of information on an international level.
The Guide provides information in English. It is published as an online searchable database here on the Internet.
You can search the database of the Guide via the Search-Engine.

For a detailed description of the intentions, the content and editing of the Guide as well as the selection and description of the archives, please see the Concept of the Guide.

Archivists who want to take part in this project by sending in information on the archive of the company / bank they are working in, are invited to complete our Online Questionnaire.
