Membership allows free entry to key association events including the annual conference and ad-hoc events.

Three categories of membership are available:

Individual Membership carries the right to vote and is available to investment professionals active primarily within equity and credit research (buy-side & sell-side), institutional fund/portfolio management, sell-side corporate access and ratings agencies. Investor relations managers of publicly-listed FMCG, luxury goods, food retail and foodservice companies that are not Corporate Members are also eligible so that they may experience CAGE first-hand before joining as a Corporate Member. The association’s board and administration are also Individual Members.

Associate Membership carries the right to vote and is available to individuals from other related investment, banking or industry sectors, whose participation is judged to result in either a direct or indirect benefit to the association. Professions that are currently eligible for Associate Membership include corporate finance, investment banking, mergers & acquisition, private equity, financial PR, investor relations advisory/consulting, consumer market research, consumer industry advisory/consulting and certain corporate functions within FMCG, luxury goods, food retail and foodservice companies.

Corporate Membership carries the right to vote and is available solely to publicly-listed FMCG, luxury goods, food retail and foodservice companies.
