In the frantic world of finance where credibility and image is everything especially in the current crisis communication plays a decisive role in company positioning.

We are especially good in financial communication through the business media and other major stakeholders to your financial audience. Our teams work closely with our clients to develop your business and investment story, helping the senior management to articulate it clearly through a detailed communications program. Then we ensure the story is disseminated concisely and consistently using regular announcements, ad hoc briefing programs, story placements, road shows and third party endorsements.

IPOs & Fundraising
Our expertise is providing counsel to clients through the IPO and fund-raising process. Our specialists have provided advice to numerous clients on domestic, international and dual-listing situations. Typically we will work alongside financial and legal advisers from early on in the pre-IPO period to produce the communications strategy, messaging and materials - including web-based investor communications where permitted - and an ongoing investor relations and media program to support market perceptions, share price and liquidity post-listing.

Debt capital markets communications
We can help you communicate your credit story to bondholders, debt analysts, ratings agencies and investors. By creating a clear credit story, clients limit the possibility that problems with their debt affect their share price while also building a more loyal debt investor base. Non-rated clients can also use our assistance to seek credit ratings for the first time, developing a clear story through the ratings process and managing the communication of the eventual rating across all their audiences.

Evolving your credit story is another area where we can be of help:

• managing the communication of any issues around debt or re-ratings - whether up or down
• ensuring that at all times the client has the proper balance between debt and equity stories.
   

In all our practice areas we adhere to the highest ethical and professional standards and comply with market transparency requirements. 

Working with us guarantees you access to specialists with in-depth sector experience and early warning of issues you may need to manage.
