Employee Initiatives
To us at ICG, inclusion means enabling employees to bring their true selves to the firm, to make the most of their abilities, and to find success because of the unique perspective which their backgrounds or beliefs bring to the firm. This commitment enables us to attract the best people and help them reach their full potential.

DEI Hub
Success in the area of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) does not come from management or policy alone.
A key element of success for everyone at ICG is our DEI Hub, driven by employees for employees. Global DEI Champions connect with all parts of the firm at all levels and generate ideas as well as put them into action.
Our employee networks make an enormous difference for the inclusion and development of particular groups or causes such as women, ethnic minorities, the LGBTQ+ community, families or mental and physical wellbeing. Together, they inform firmwide decision‐making as well as drive individual initiatives.

Intersectionality
We recognise that people all have multiple, overlapping identities that may impact on their experiences in different ways.
Intersectionality is a lens through which we look to understand how different types of inequity can happen together and potentially amplify each other.
Cooperation among different groups can help solve shared problems, and so we encourage collaboration between our employee networks.
To honour Zero Discrimination Day and The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, our UNIFY Network partnered with our Together Network to host a breakfast event across seven global offices to raise awareness of sexual orientation and race-based discrimination.
