TWG is a conglomerate invested in seven different industries which include; financial services, insurance, artificial intelligence and other technology, sports and entertainment, energy and merchant banking.

TWG owns multiple financial services companies under its subsidiary Delaware Life Holdings, LLC, including Group 1001 Insurance[12][13][14][non-primary source needed] and Guggenheim Partners (Guggenheim Investments and Guggenheim Securities).[15]
In April 2025, Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund Mubadala Investment Company and TWG Global formed a partnership, with TWG Global purchasing a 5% stake of Mubadala Capital and Mubadala Capitala committing a $10 billion syndicated investment in TWG Global.[16]
