The funds will be primarily utilized to facilitate the expansion of operations and to further development efforts that aim to enhance the services offered to their clients.
This company was founded in February 2023, following the merger of two well-established firms, Ross Trustees and Independent Trustee Services (ITS).
Under the leadership of CEO Andrew Bradshaw, Independent Governance Group has rapidly carved out a significant presence in the pensions sector. The company's core offerings include professional pensions trusteeship and governance services, which are effectively delivered through various appointments such as chair of trustees, co-trustee, and professional corporate sole trustee roles. These comprehensive services have allowed IGG to meet the diverse needs of a growing clientele.
Over the past 18 months, Independent Governance Group has made substantial strides in establishing its regional presence across several key cities, including Bristol, Birmingham, Edinburgh, and Manchester, while maintaining a strong headquarters in London. In addition to its primary focus, the company has broadened its service offerings to include pensions and employee benefits communications, as well as investment governance expertise, which are delivered through its Like Minds and IC Select brands respectively. With a dedicated workforce of over 200 professionals, IGG is well-positioned to leverage this new investment to drive further success in the professional pensions sector.
