The East India Trading Company came into being in 1600, when the British first arrived in India. It was set up and immediately given a trade monopoly in India; in other words, no other British company could trade out of India. East India Company was established in 1602, when the States-General of the Netherlands granted it a 21-year monopoly to carry out colonial activities in Asia. It was the first multinational corporation in the world and the first company to issue stock. East India Company was the name of several historical European companies chartered with the monopoly of trading with Asia; more specifically with India. * British East India Company, founded in 1600 * Danish East India Company, founded in 1616 * Dutch East India Company, founded in 1602 * French East India Company, founded in 1664 * Swedish East India Company, founded in 1731 * Portuguese East India Company, founded in 1628
