About the event
Explore how IR teams can adapt to the rise of passive investing while effectively measuring and communicating their impact. As index funds and ETFs reshape shareholder dynamics, IR professionals must evolve their strategies to remain influential and demonstrate their value to internal and external stakeholders.
In this briefing, we will explore:
- The current state of passive and active trends in the market that IROs need to be cognizant of
- The importance of understanding and communicating passive flows, volatility and trading dynamics internally
- Understanding the role and influence of active opportunities in a passive-heavy share register
- How IROs can remain impactful in this environment amid a changing asset management landscape
- Identifying the right KPIs and benchmarks to track IR performance to better showcase effectiveness
