ICI media credentials permitting complimentary admission to ICI events for members of the media are available only to reporters, editors working as reporters, producers, video camera operators, and still photographers who present valid media identification. Exceptions must be approved by ICI’s Media Relations staff.
To secure credentials for any ICI event that is open to the media, please visit the event's registration page and select "Press" as the registration type when registering. Contact Stephen Bradford at stephen.bradford@ici.org with any questions.
ICI Media Relations Policy on Media Credentials for Bloggers and Others
Anyone who lacks formal media credentials, such as an independent blogger, must authenticate their status with ICI media relations staff by applying for media credentials as outlined above and providing links to their recent blog posts or other published information. Those who can demonstrate that they have written about ICI or related mutual fund or ETF issues in the previous six months will be considered for credentials.
Additional Information
ICI media credentials are not available to staff of media advertising, marketing, public relations firms, or other similar outlets.
Anyone who violates ICI guidelines for media coverage of an ICI event may have their credentials withdrawn. Some ICI conference sessions are closed to media, and clearly marked as such. Strict adherence to this rule is enforced and violators may be asked to leave the conference.
ICI reserves the right to grant or deny media credentials to any applicant, based on specific circumstances and our media guidelines.
