Capital Markets Strategy
Get the Capital Markets Working For You… Don’t Get Worked by the Capital Markets
The Challenge
How should manage teams allocate capital to investor relations to enhance shareholder value? How should they structure their capital markets function? Who should they trust in the Capital Markets and who is just pouring honey into their ear? What messages should they believe when every counterparty in the capital markets has a different set of interests that may or may not align with management?
Before going public, the success of a company is based entirely on their operational performance. However, once a company goes public, their future success or failure is also dictated by how effectively they navigate the complex regulations, intersecting interests, and politics of the capital markets.
Navigating the complex multi-layered web of regulations and securities laws from different jurisdictions, different levels of governments, and various competing regulatory authorities is a daunting task in and of itself. However, management teams must also understand the intersecting interests between themselves, their investors, and their sell-side advisors to diplomatically navigate their capital market relationships effectively.
Our Solution
Delivering a Tailored Capital Market Strategy that Drives Long-term Success for Your Company
We help management teams establish a Capital Markets Strategy that enhances shareholder value by maximizing the benefit the company receives from the Capital Markets. Companies that understand and play “the game” well receive better support from investors and the sell-side, are brought better opportunities, and benefit from a higher valuation relative to their peers.
Our approach includes:
-
Maximizing Your Return on the Capital Markets: We maximize the return on the capital your management team allocates to the investor relations and capital markets function. We do this by right sizing the resources being applied to this critical area, and establish objective, measurable standards to measure the return on this investment.
-
A Balanced Approach to Compliance: We ensure conformance to all securities laws and regulations while balancing the needs of the company and its investors. We work with inside and outside legal counsel to ensure the company meets all of its obligations, while protecting the company from the harms of an overzealous approach to these frameworks.
-
Trusted Partner Identification: We help management teams sift through the inbounds and understand the difference between those in the capital markets they can trust, and the grifters that will do them harm for their own benefit.
Whether you’re new to managing a company through the capital markets, or a seasoned veteran, our services will help you set a capital markets strategy that points your company towards greater success.
