Using market surveillance to inform your IR program
Shareholder Identification was the subject in this column of the Q1 2008 DR Advisor Quarterly. That article explained how Shareholder IDs can reveal, at a given point in time, a meaningful percentage of the institutions that hold an issuer’s depositary receipts (DRs) as well as its ordinary shares. Knowing who your company’s equity holders are is the foundation on which an effective investor relations program is built. By Matt Kolby, Head of IR Advisory Services, J.P. Morgan.

People like me have been promoting online annual report best practices for
almost a decade now, but the message mostly isn’t getting through. According to
the 2009 Nexxar online annual report survey, there has been a modest improvement
in the number of companies that are providing at least some of their reports’
content in formats that meet the basic usability needs of investors. By Dominic
Jones, IR Web Report.

Analysts and investors have long complained that management at some companies
manipulate the flow of information to the market and play favorites by carefully
screening which questions they take on their earnings calls. By Dominic Jones,

Investor relations in Russia can be tough. The country’s stock market is still
in its infancy and remains far more volatile than other major country’s bourses.

IR magazine.
