Proxymity’s head of product on the best ways to reach retail investors

IR Magazine recently published its latest best practice report, entitled Rethinking retail investors, in partnership with Proxymity.

The report offers a tactical roadmap for IR practitioners seeking to successfully harness and engage with retail shareholders. Veteran IR professionals share actionable insights into understanding the specific needs of retail investors, from their burning questions at AGMs to the digital communication channels that best resonate with these digitally savvy shareholders.

‘Retail investors present themselves – particularly now – as loyal investors.’
