5 December 2022 – London:

ICAP, part of TP ICAP group, a leading provider of market infrastructure, is pleased to announce that its 30th annual global Charity Day will be held on Wednesday 7 December. 

Each year, ICAP Charity Day raises money for charities across the globe, with 100% of the ICAP’s revenues and 100% of its brokers’ commissions generated on the day donated to a variety of causes. Last year more than 100 different charitable organisations worldwide benefited.

Since it began in 1993, ICAP Charity Day has raised more than £155 million and has made over 2,800 donations in support of more than 1,700 charities worldwide. Donations have been made in 25 countries, with medicine, education, and relief from poverty being the most supported causes. Children and young people have been the most supported group, followed by people with ill health or social disadvantage.

In the UK, 30 charitable organisations are set to benefit this year. They will be joined by their celebrity patrons and ambassadors at ICAP’s offices in London, where they will help brokers close deals with clients.

Ant and Dec, on behalf of The Prince’s Trust; Gaby Roslin on behalf of Alzheimer’s Research UK; Keith Lemon, representing Shooting Star Children’s Hospices; and David Haye on behalf of Prostate Cancer UK are among the distinguished celebrity ambassadors who will be attending ICAP Charity Day in London this year.

Nicolas Breteau, Group Chief Executive Officer, TP ICAP, said: 

“Given that this is the landmark 30th year of ICAP Charity Day, we are delighted to be supporting thirty charities in the UK, and many more across the globe. We know the charitable sector continues to face significant funding challenges; our hope is that the money we raise will help these wonderful causes continue with their invaluable work.

“For our part, we love ICAP Charity Day. Thanks to our brokers, our clients, our vendors and our charity partners, it has developed into an iconic event that has directly benefitted millions of people worldwide – which is a source of great pleasure and pride to everyone in our firm.”
