IR Impact Masterclass: how to maximize your relationships with the buy side

Stephen Yiu, fund manager and co-founder of the Blue Whale Growth Fund, reveals how IR teams can make the most of their buy-side connections.

In this episode, Yiu starts by giving us his current view of the macro-economic environment, particularly with one eye on Donald Trump’s second term as US president and the implications for global markets. He also reveals what he sees as the crucial aspects of the IR-buy side relationship and how corporate teams can help their investors understand their companies better.

In this IR Impact Masterclass, you will learn:

  • Which forces will have the most impact on the capital markets in 2025
  • How growth-focused fund managers look at investee companies
  • The Blue Whale Growth Fund’s process for taking a position
  • What leading investors want to see from IR teams
  • The common mistakes that IROs make when communicating with investors
  • The skills and attributes that fund managers prize most highly in IR professionals.
