In 2021, we saw the return of charities, their celebrity patrons and ambassadors to the ICAP broking floor in London and New York, raising an incredible £3.6 million globally.
The film below captures a part of this iconic event, showing some of the incredible charities we supported, their ambassadors and the ICAP brokers who make it all possible.
Charity Day 2022 – Save the Date
The 30th ICAP Charity Day will take place on Wednesday 7 December 2022. Since it began in 1993, ICAP Charity Day has raised over £155 million and supported over 2,700 charitable projects around the world.
The commitment of our brokers, clients and charity partners and their ambassadors is what makes the event so special and this year was no different. Thank you to everyone involved.
March 8 represents a special day globally, marking the celebration of International Women’s Day. It is a call to action to accelerate gender parity and recognise the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women.
The day has been marked in diaries for well over a century now, with the first IWD gathering in 1911 supported by over a million people in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland. Today, IWD is a global collective and its importance is as stark as it was back in the early 20th century.
#breakthebias
This year’s IWD theme is ‘Break The Bias’. But what does this mean? It is a movement that we support here at TP ICAP to not just imagine a gender equal world but make it a reality. If all areas of society play their part to #breakthebias, we can all benefit from a world that is free of bias, stereotypes, discrimination - where diversity in our communities and workplaces is valued and celebrated. Whether it occurs deliberately or unconsciously, bias makes it difficult for women to progress and fulfil their potential. Simply acknowledging that bias exists isn’t enough; action is needed to level the playing field.
So why is it so important we shift the current landscape? There is still a huge gulf in gender parity in nations across the globe. A World Economic Forum study last year actually found that the global gender gap has increased by a generation from 99.5 years to 135.6 years. We have also seen halted progression in the UK, with The Guardian reporting the gender pay gap reported by Britain’s biggest firms is widening. Women are being paid a median hourly rate 10.2% less than their male counterparts, nearly a percentage point higher than the 9.3% gap reported in 2018.
With these disappointing stats in mind, it is only right that celebrating International Women’s Day is part of TP ICAP’s agenda - putting gender diversity front and centre.
What we’re doing at TP ICAP
Here at TP ICAP we are committed to ensuring our work environment globally is an inclusive place to flourish. All of our employees – regardless of their gender, educational background, ethnicity, ability, age or sexual orientation – are owed an equal opportunity to succeed.
Since signing the Women In Finance Charter in September 2018, we have made significant improvements on gender balance at all levels of our organisation. As of September last year, we beat our target to see 25% senior women in the business by 2025. But there is more we can do and will do to secure future growth by building diversity into our succession pipeline.
In February, we launched the Women in Leadership Programme. Designed to have impact by giving all our women the tools and skills to boost and inspire career growth. All staff are encouraged to join the sessions – held throughout 2022 - to get expert advice, knowledge and skills.
TP Accord – driving positive change
Our wider employee network, collectively known as TP ICAP Accord, supports our drive to improve diversity & inclusion across the business. It is another avenue for all staff to promote positive change within our employee groups in LGBTQ+, Multicultural, Sports & Wellbeing, Veterans’ and Women’s Networks. These networks have a combined aim to unite our employees, to celebrate our diverse workforce and to collaborate on areas of common interest.
As we celebrate what I hope is an impactful and landmark IWD, I encourage everyone to explore ways in which they can get involved and make our communities a more inclusive place for all.
Thank you.
Philip Price,
Group General Counsel, TP ICAP

PVM, the world's leading broker of oil instruments and part of TP ICAP group, announced today the launch of its Natural Gas & Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) desk, led by experienced brokers Victoria Adams and Alexandra Nitka.
Based in both London and Madrid, the new team of six – which includes senior broker Jatin Patel, formerly at Marex Spectron– assembles strong industry knowledge and client relationships built over a combined 50 years of working in the commodities markets. It is also one of the few female-led brokerage desks in Europe.
The role of the desk is to provide an efficient brokerage service in European Natural Gas. Contracts include the Dutch Title Transfer Facility, German Trading Hub Europe and the UK’s National Balancing Point, as well as financial LNG products (Japan Korea Marker and the US dollar denominated TTF).
Both natural gas and LNG are considered to be transitional energy sources in the global shift to green energy, given their low environmental impact in comparison to other fossil fuels.
Victoria Adams, PVM Natural Gas & LNG Co-head, said, “The desk has launched at a time of unprecedented volatility in global gas prices, and we’ve already built up significant momentum. On our first day of trading the team closed TTF contracts, as well as instruments to help clients offset their positions. Our plan is to grow the Natural Gas and LNG desk to mirror the outstanding reputation PVM has built in the oil markets since its founding in 1971.”
Simon Andrews, PVM Chief Executive, said, “We are proud and excited to have added Natural Gas and LNG to the PVM brand’s extensive oil brokerage services. Launching in Europe is one part of a larger global initiative to build out our offering in this rapidly expanding market.”
The PVM Natural Gas & LNG Europe team offers brokerage services in the following contracts: TTF, THE, NBP, PEG, PVB, Austrian VTP, Czech VTP, JKM and TFU.
