Benoît Durteste, CEO, said:
I want to thank all our employees and those of our portfolio companies for their dedication and commitment during these challenging times. People are fundamental to ICG’s success and their health is of upmost importance.
“The start of the financial year has been encouraging. Our portfolios are showing signs of improved performance, noticeably better than expected at year-end, indicating a recovery of valuations from their end of March lows. We have also seen an early rebound in investment activity as lockdown measures have eased and business activity resumes. This bodes well for next year’s fundraising prospects.
“We are approaching this market from a position of strength. Our diversified strategies and global capabilities are more relevant than ever in today’s markets. Our business is in a resilient position, with long-term fee streams, diversified portfolios and well-capitalised balance sheet. We are therefore well-placed for significant long-term growth and value creation.
