Summary/Abstract: This paper examines the founding and operation of the First American-Yugoslav Export-Import Association in Chicago. As a private initiative of individuals from the Kingdom of Serbia and Yugoslav immigrants in the United States, the Association was founded with the aim of establishing economic ties between the Serbian and then the Yugoslav state and the USA. The subject of analysis is the emergence of new tendencies in the perception of economic development, the significance and scope of personal initiative, economic pragmatism and ideological content that accompanied the emergence of the Association, challenges in its operation, and the position of the Serbian/ Yugoslav state in the process of formation and operation of this joint stock company. The research is based on archival material stored in the Archives of Yugoslavia and the State Archives of Serbia, periodicals and monographs
