   Q1 Trading Statement for the three months ended 30 
   June 2022 
     Resilient business performance; fundraising of $4.5bn 
  Highlights 
 
   --    Fundraising of $4.5bn during the quarter 
 
   --    Total AUM of $71.3bn, an increase on a 
         constant-currency basis of 3% in the quarter and 19% 
         in the last twelve months 
 
   --    Third-party fee-earning AUM of $58.8bn, an increase 
         on a constant-currency basis of 5% in the quarter and 
         27% in the last twelve months 
 
   --    Europe VIII total fund size currently EUR7.8bn, 
         materially above original target size of EUR7.0bn and 
         1.8x more third-party AUM than Europe VII. 
         Fundraising largely complete, final close expected by 
         end of July 
 
   --    Final closes held for Strategic Equity IV ($4.2bn 
         total fund size, 2.4x more third-party AUM than 
         Strategic Equity III) and Asia Pacific IV ($1.1bn 
         total fund size, 1.8x more third-party AUM than Asia 
         Pacific III) 
 
   --    Fund valuations in-line with 31 March 2022, 
         reflecting ICG's focus on structuring transactions 
         for downside protection and the continued strong 
         operational performance of underlying portfolio 
         companies offsetting valuation pressures 
 
   --    Strong balance sheet, with total available liquidity 
         of GBP1.4bn at 30 June 2022 
 
 
  Benoît Durteste 
  CEO and CIO 
  The breadth of ICG's strategies and our firm-wide 
   focus on downside protection are powerful characteristics 
   of our business, especially in the current environment. 
   We focus on investing in resilient companies with 
   strong market positions and are able to provide them 
   with flexible capital in the form most appropriate 
   to their needs, from full equity buyouts to senior 
   debt. In doing so, we help our clients achieve their 
   investment objectives in private markets through economic 
   cycles. 
   We remained active in the quarter. Fundraising was 
   robust, including holding successful final closes 
   for Strategic Equity IV and Asia Pacific IV. As anticipated, 
   deployment and realisation levels across the market 
   were lower than in previous quarters and in this context 
   we continued to execute a number of transactions across 
   all our asset classes. Our pipeline remains constructive, 
   particularly within direct lending (SDP) where we 
   are seeing a growing set of future deployment opportunities. 
   As a firm we continued executing on our strategic 
   agenda to reinforce our long-term growth trajectory, 
   including selectively building out our marketing and 
   client relations team and onboarding a real estate 
   equity team in Asia. The management fee-centric nature 
   of our fund management company gives us confidence 
   in the resilience of our business through periods 
   of uncertainty, and our performance remains in-line 
   with the outlook we recently gave in our full year 
   results.

Foreign exchange rates

The following foreign exchange rates have been used throughout this review:

 
          Average rate  Average rate  30 June 2022  31 March 2022

At 30 June 2022, our third-party AUM was $68.2m. If GBP:USD had been by 5% higher (1.2787) our reported third-party AUM would have been $441m higher. If EUR:USD had been 5% higher (1.1007) our reported third-party AUM would have been $1,926m higher.

Where noted, this review presents changes in AUM on a constant-exchange-rate basis. For the purposes of these calculations, opening AUM numbers have been translated from their underlying fund currencies to USD at the respective period-end exchange rates. This has then been compared to the AUM at the period end to arrive at the change on a constant-exchange-rate basis.
