Dear MCG… Respect my authority

by Alice Murray 16 June 2017

Dear MCG,

I am the individual responsible for IR at our firm and have been driving the agenda for a few years, now. The firm is beginning to appreciate the value that a professional Investor Relations function can have and I have been able to secure improved access to live portfolio data for my team. However, whilst I have managed to gain observer status at our IC (investment committee) meetings, I still don’t feel that my team and I have sufficient access to the pipeline and we are unable to exert much influence on investment decisions from a IR perspective – beyond perfunctory ESG box-ticking.
