EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION BETWEEN COMPANIES & INVESTORS
COVID-19 BUSINESS CONTINUITY
In line with the Government’s most recent advice about COVID-19, we are now working remotely. Business continues as usual and we are still fully contactable.
Communicating with your investors remains as vital now as much as ever. As such we are now organising dozens of virtual investor meetings and conference calls for our clients, as well as sharing your news flow and our research with investors.
Please do get in touch if you have any questions.
WHY?
Why do people use us or companies like us?
Our clients use us to access different pools of capital to enable them to better align share price performance with the underlying performance of the business. Companies also use us because of our unrivalled regional contacts: 50% of our meetings take place outside of London.

ABOUT US
Capital Access Group is a specialist investor relations advisory business that connects quoted and private companies with new and existing investors, primarily private client fund managers, smaller institutions and regional pension funds.
We do this by targeting, meeting and talking to investors.
Our service is unconstrained by MiFID II, is additive to your existing corporate broker and ultimately looks to broaden your share register and in turn increase liquidity, dampen volatility and enhance share price performance.

SERVICES
CORPORATE ACCESS
Capital Access offers a bespoke, MiFID II compliant programme connecting companies with an additional pool of capital - private client fund managers, smaller institutions and regional pension funds.
Our Corporate Access programme is augmented with full, attributed feedback collected for every meeting, as well as "Market Pulses" - on the day feedback after results or other important company announcements.
INVESTOR TARGETING
Investor preferences and appetites evolve, and, through our regular contact with investors, so does our understanding.
All meetings organised by the Corporate Access programme are highly targeted to ensure the best use of investor and management time.
Analysis of shareholder movements is also undertaken to track the effectiveness of the programme and to understand wider register changes.
IR
ADVISORY
Capital Access has over twenty years of experience advising public companies. Whether FTSE 100 giants or smaller growth companies on AIM, we have the expertise to be able to help our clients understand ‘the market’ and the different constituencies within it.
Using our own proprietary data, information gleaned talking to investors, and the deep relationships we have with fund managers, we can help our clients sharpen and polish their messaging, and focus on investors’ concerns.
NEWSFLOW DISTRIBUTION
Client news is distributed to our network of investors to keep our clients at the forefront of investors' minds.
As part of the Access team's regular contact with the market this news is discussed, and for large or important announcements on-the-day feedback (our "Market Pulse") is produced to give a deeper understanding of investor sentiment.
ISSUER SPONSORED RESEARCH
Our research is aimed at the generalist investor. It seeks to simplify the business, put it in context with the sector and explore the key performance indicators.
Full length notes can be augmented with shorter "Consensus in Detail" notes which seek to examine and explain the characteristics of analyst forecasts.
Notes are available to the whole of market through the likes of Bloomberg, Reuters, ResearchTree and even your company's own website.
INVESTOR PERCEPTIONS
We believe that before deciding on the key points in a company’s investor engagement programme it is crucial to understand exactly how the company is perceived by ‘the market’. A carefully crafted investor perception survey can reveal what investors think about the company and what their concerns are.
Our surveys cover the entire market from Institutional majors to retail investors so that our clients can fully understand what the various participants think, and, critically, how to address them.
CLIENTS
Our clients range from FTSE100 to AIM and across most sectors allowing broad and regular discussion with investors.
Every client is different so programmes are equally diverse.
