As the role of investor relations becomes increasingly strategic, IROs are working more closely with their corporate secretaries and boards to inspire confidence about the overall health and long-term plan of the company. But even the best intentions and plans may not be enough to keep activists in check. In this session we’ll facilitate an informative discussion covering:
● The IR governance plan - how to collaborate with your corporate secretary to ensure that investor feedback reaches the board of directors.
● The activist readiness plan – how to ensure that your board and management are ready to respond to an activist situation.
