Fund Portrait

ICP Asset Management is a financial services firm based in Norway.

The core team was part of Norges Bank Investment Management, the manager of the norwegian sovereign wealth fund, for more than a decade prior to forming ICP. Now ICP is part of Aker, one of the leading industrial conglomerates in Norway with a strong focus on renewable energy.   

 

ICP's investment focus is the transition to a low-carbon economy. The investment process combines top-down analysis of economic activities that will benefit from the transition with bottom-up analysis of quality companies with sound growth.
