IR training

As a new member of a management team for a listed company, it can be difficult to get an overview of how the company's market communication is handled, what rules and approaches exist and what impact you can have, both on work processes and on the sentiment around the company and the share. We customize and design courses and training in corporate communications, media training and IR to suit your needs and your company. With our help, you can work safely and effectively with your IR work.

In the course of day-to-day IR work, unexpected events often arise. It could be a piece of news that needs to be communicated to the market, uncertainty about how to convey complex financial information or something that you urgently need to inform your shareholders about. AVA is always available as a reliable partner for your company. We offer comprehensive solutions but can also act as an additional resource. Our consultants have extensive experience in strategic communication and IR and are ready to assist you when you need it most.

Many companies lack good procedures and processes for their external communication. We help companies build up their IR work from scratch. AVA can act as an external IR function for your company, where we use our experience to ensure that all your communication is handled according to practice and in accordance with legal requirements and stock exchange guidelines. At the same time, we develop internal procedures that ensure that the work is time-efficient and that the end result is always of the highest quality.

As an IR officer, or part of a company's IR team, you are responsible for much of the external communication with investors, the market and other stakeholders. This includes production and project management of all financial reporting, drafting and distribution of press releases, market analysis, responsibility for the IR website, public relations and planning of public events and presentations, and ensuring the company's compliance with laws, regulations and guidelines on corporate governance issues.

As a manager of a listed company, you have limited time and opportunity to participate in all processes. Even if you are not directly involved in the production of the annual report, for example, it is an advantage to know how it is produced and what resources are required. Having a basic knowledge of IR work will lead to better planning and results more in line with your expectations.

IR work largely involves the company's communication with all stakeholders beyond (but also including) your customers. Being consistent and transparent in how you describe your business helps to build understanding and long-term trust in your company and management.
