Abstract

In this chapter, we describe how good IR can mitigate a risk premium. It is in the company’s interest to provide the financial markets with relevant and transparent information on factors that allows the financial markets to estimate an intrinsic value which is more in-line with the company’s view, and thus price the company’s shares accordingly. However, it is essential for company representatives to distinguish between information that is acceptable and non-acceptable to disclose. A company may provide granularity and deep-dive thoughts into the competitive markets and explore the factors that determine the share price. However, the company may not selectively share price sensitive, non-public information with the market participants. Such information includes information that a reasonable investor would consider important in making an investment decision.
