New Global Compliance Board Launches to Raise Matchmaking Standards and Protect Consumers

BLAIRSTOWN, N.J. - Rezul -- The International Matchmaking Compliance Board (IMCB) is launching as the first self-regulatory organization (SRO) dedicated to establishing ethical standards, accrediting professional matchmaking companies, and offering industry-specific dispute resolution. Formed in response to growing concerns about consumer protection and accountability in the romantic services sector, IMCB aims to raise the bar for integrity, transparency, and professionalism worldwide.

Founded by Arlene Washburn, an award-winning former matchmaker and respected mentor, the IMCB serves as a vital resource for both matchmaking companies and their clients. The board offers accreditation, a published Code of Conduct, continuing compliance education, and access to confidential dispute resolution—advancing transparency, accountability, and ethical excellence across the industry.

"As matchmaking becomes more mainstream with movies like The Materialist and other shows on TV, the industry is long overdue for a dedicated compliance body that protects both clients and businesses,"  said Arlene Washburn, Founder of IMCB. "The IMCB was created to raise standards, improve outcomes, and ensure that ethical matchmaking companies can thrive—while giving daters the transparency and peace of mind they deserve."

Through this partnership, IMCB-accredited companies gain access to a structured dispute resolution process tailored to the relationship industry, helping both businesses and clients address concerns professionally, confidentially, and in alignment with ethical best practices.
