Learn about Nestlé’s IR approach in this best practice video

At the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, investors and analysts realized their models needed revising and asked for a lot of granular detail, explains John Armstrong, IR manager at Nestlé, in a best practice interview with IR Magazine

While Nestlé aims to keep up with best practices, it also focuses on simple rules to maintain the quality of its IR program, such as timeliness, transparency and maintaining trust, notes Armstrong.
