In the last year, investors and companies have faced a number of challenges, including complex geopolitical dynamics and market volatility. Despite this, FY25 was a milestone year for ICG, as clients placed their trust in us with the commitment of more capital to our diverse product base, and companies continued to look to ICG for partnership and flexible capital solutions to grow and scale.
Indeed, ICG has emerged as one of the few global alternative asset managers who are seeing their competitive position strengthened in today’s challenging market conditions. We know this is thanks to our strong track record, product offering, culture and people. This report highlights how we are strengthening our investment approach through the integration of sustainability considerations, our efforts to attract and support the best people, and our work to ensure we manage the risks and impacts of our operations.
ICG’s clients, regulators, shareholders and other stakeholders rightly expect us to understand and manage the full spectrum of risks that can affect long-term value in our investments. Climate change, governance failures, human capital considerations – as well as emerging macro trends such as the growing use of AI and resilience of supply chains – are potential material risks that can erode value if left unaddressed, and also unlock opportunity when tackled with foresight and discipline.
We have evolved a sustainability approach that is both rigorous and tailored, accounting for the nuances of each investment strategy. We see this integration as a source of competitive advantage; companies with strong sustainability practices are better positioned to attract talent, secure capital, and deliver resilient growth. That’s why we’ve integrated sustainability into our investment decision-making and our value creation plans – aligning our teams with long-term outcomes that matter.

Our people are at the heart of ICG’s success. We strive for a culture that celebrates high performance. And, we aim to attract an engaged and ambitious team who contribute a variety of strengths and perspectives at every level to strengthen and grow our business.
Looking ahead, we will continue to evolve our approach – not just to meet regulatory expectations, but to deliver superior returns for our clients by investing in businesses that are built to thrive in the next-generation economy.
