Investors play a key role in the success and growth of a company, to this extent, it is of highest importance for companies to maintain strong, transparent relationships with them and this is where the investor relations department of a company comes into play.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\"><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>by Simona D&#8217;Agostino Reuter<\/em>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:44px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\">Investor Relations Functionality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\"><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">IR departments serve a variety of functions and play a host of roles. Some of IR\u2019s other functions include:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:51px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-list\"><li>Coordination of meetings<\/li><li>Conferences for shareholders and the press<\/li><li>Releasing financial information<\/li><li>Taking point on financial briefings<\/li><li>Filing and publishing quarterly report<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Because IR fulfills so many duties in so many capacities, it is essential in our view that the department is fully integrated with nearly every other department in the company, such as the legal and accounting departments, as well as with the entire executive management team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:41px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:29px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>One of IROs key contribution is to help manage senior management\u2019s time and to keep them accessible to investors and analysts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Reducing the burden of IR on the CEO and CFO and even the need to educate senior management and show them in the best light.

Today investors &nbsp;are interested in getting more insight on company strategy, ESG, executive pay, and board composition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">With investor activism increasing and world markets obsessed by uncertainty, CEOs need a new breed of skilled investor relations officer (IRO) to help and \u201cdo some homework\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Today\u2019s CEOs need&nbsp;a new breed of skilled investor relations officer to bridge the gap. This person should be a proactive leader, building constructive relationships throughout the shareholder base to help the company mitigate various risks. CEOs need to give the IRO a clear mandate to quarterback investor dialogue and get buy-in around all of the elements of management\u2019s long-term strategy. The IRO must be part of a unified board and C-suite investor planning group, and their responsibilities should include building and sustaining credibility with long-term investors, and providing useful<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Just as the relationship between companies and investors has changed, the role of the IRO has to change too. Internal or external advisors, IROs are becoming indispensable&nbsp;assets for&nbsp;the executive team and for the board. their responsibilities should include building and sustaining credibility with long-term investors, and providing useful information on a timely basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:46px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong>Which&nbsp;skills define a good IRO<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">IRO&nbsp;should&nbsp;have&nbsp;a deep understanding of their company\u2019s strategy,&nbsp;compensation policies, board composition&nbsp;and&nbsp;diversity and environmental goals. At the same time,&nbsp;they continue to be a relationship builder,&nbsp;orchestrating&nbsp;the creation of&nbsp;teams,&nbsp;and&nbsp;bringing&nbsp;the right&nbsp;decision-makers together&nbsp;to provide a&nbsp;consistent&nbsp;message<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">In our view, the IR job should focus more in some key areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1. Articulating&nbsp;Strategy:&nbsp;<\/strong> today\u2019s IRO&nbsp;must&nbsp;be able to&nbsp;articulate the most recent company strategy to investors, with a clear rationale for long-term value creation. Simply put, the role has to add&nbsp;more&nbsp;value to the corporation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Competitive Intelligence:&nbsp;<\/strong>At the same time,&nbsp;the role needs to shift&nbsp;away from&nbsp;one&nbsp;where the IRO&nbsp;merely&nbsp;keeps track of&nbsp;what investors&nbsp;are&nbsp;saying. Instead,&nbsp;the new IRO must&nbsp;become an&nbsp;intelligence agent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Targeting and keeping track of the right investors:&nbsp;<\/strong>In&nbsp;a&nbsp;world where every company&nbsp;has&nbsp;to work hard to raise investor capital, the new IRO must master how these competitive forces work.&nbsp;The best IROs will&nbsp;know how to find the&nbsp;right investors&nbsp;for the company and proactively cultivate them and try to get them on board. Because&nbsp;CEOs&nbsp;today&nbsp;need to&nbsp;spend&nbsp;an increasing amount&nbsp;of their&nbsp;time&nbsp;with their&nbsp;external stakeholders, a&nbsp;good&nbsp;IRO&nbsp;can take some of the pressure off of a CEO&nbsp;by finding and cultivating the right investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Warning radars:&nbsp;<\/strong>The&nbsp;new&nbsp;role will require not only financial&nbsp;savvy, but also the ability to truly understand how today\u2019s sophisticated investors operate.&nbsp;In&nbsp;changing capital markets, it\u2019s critical that the IRO stays on top of capital allocation and how it is mixed with the company\u2019s long-term&nbsp;strategy. The&nbsp;role should function as an&nbsp;early warning radar system&nbsp;when trouble is brewing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:36px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"287\" src=\"https:\/\/hear-ir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ir-1024x287.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"7194\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/hear-ir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ir.png\" data-link=\"https:\/\/hear-ir.com\/?attachment_id=7194\" class=\"wp-image-7194\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hear-ir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ir-1024x287.png 1024w, https:\/\/hear-ir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ir-300x84.png 300w, https:\/\/hear-ir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ir-768x216.png 768w, https:\/\/hear-ir.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ir.png 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The New vs. Traditional IRO<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">We try to outline here below some key elements of a new type of IR, a sort of evolution in respect to the one we have described for years so far: today\u2019s IRO must be a more proactive leader, building constructive relationships throughout the shareholder base to help the company mitigate various risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color:#e0e5e9;color:#434141\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Traditional IRO<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>New IRO<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Manages sell-side analysts and helps shape their opinions about company strategy<\/td><td>Takes an active role in articulating company strategy and purpose to all classes of investors<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Communicates company results and documents to investors<\/td><td>Communicates company strategy and why it is best suited to enhance long-term value creation and competitive advantage<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Has limited interaction with the board<\/td><td>Articulates investor landscape and what will drive value over the long term to the board<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Reacts to activist inquiries by preparing financials, proxy materials, etc.<\/td><td>Takes initiative to think like an activist, acting as an early warning system before an activist arrives<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Reports to CFO and focuses mostly on financials<\/td><td>Has dotted-line reporting to all C-suite members and is educated on various topics, including operations, compensation, ESG, capital allocation, and talent<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><\/td><td><em>Source: Harvard Business Review, 2021<\/em><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:36px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Benefits of a Good Investor Relations Team<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">In the end, the benefits of a good IR team primarily are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"a\" class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-list\"><li>Communicate the Company\u2019s strategy and view in the best way<\/li><li>Maintain a loyal shareholder base<\/li><li>Enhance long-term shareholder value<\/li><li>Help to lower the&nbsp;cost of capital<\/li><li>Build long-term credibility with the investment community<\/li><li>Keep and continuously improve the reputation of the Company.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:42px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Traditionally the role had been filled by people with media relations skills, but over the 10&nbsp;years (also in Italy) the job has become more financially demanding.
