GIC Group integrates experience and strength in research, analysis, and marketing with financial services, asset management and carbon credit indexes. We offer agribusiness and ag biotech industries a complete skill set to provide access to global and domestic markets, add value to current agribusiness activities, and identify new market opportunities. We provide financial institutions with specialized agricultural industry insight and work closely with them on deal pipeline and executions. For public sector clients, GIC provides research, evaluations, and policy advisory assistance.
GIC Group was established in 1980 to provide investment, financial and more recently, carbon credit services to agribusiness companies, financial institutions, and public sector clients worldwide. Since then, our services have expanded as biotechnology, consolidation, vertical integration, and carbon emissions have become so strategically important to commercial agriculture. Our core activity is agribusiness but the expanded range of our services reflects the structural changes in the industry. Based in Alexandria, Virginia, the GIC Group also has partner offices in Beijing, Sao Paulo, and Moscow. We maintain a close association with agribusiness professionals worldwide who provide GIC Group with regional industry and market information and support for GIC Group in-country activities. The scale and scope of client projects can be accommodated, whether the focus is domestic or global.
