OUR SERVICES

What we do

We offer a wide range of services to support businesses in protecting and promoting their brand, mitigating risk in whatever critical circumstances they are facing and creating opportunity and value as a trusted long-term partner.

As one of the leading financial consultancies in Asia Pacific, we have handled some of the most significant IPOs, M&As and other financial transactions in APAC.

Leveraging our 30 years of experience in the region, we are able to provide our clients with the best strategic advice and communications on their transactions, whether in-bound or out-bound M&A or capital raising.

Over the past three decades, we have helped global and Asian companies raise their profile and protect and enhance their reputation across the region.

Our work covers a broad spectrum of services including executive profiling and thought leadership, CSR, corporate positioning and messaging, as well as media relations. We work with clients from a variety of sectors including financial institutions, real estate investors, service providers and fintech & technology.

Our dedicated investor relations team has a track record of more than 30 years in advising boards, senior executives and IROs worldwide to build their profiles amongst the investment community and nurture relationships with key decision makers.

We advise listed companies on communicating with their shareholders and operating global best practices. We also organise events including roadshows, corporate/investor days and site visits, annual general meetings and analyst briefings.

Effective communication during crisis is crucial for a company to safeguard its brand image, preserve the trust of stakeholders as well as to minimise the negative impact on operations and reputation. Our experienced team not only helps companies to manage their reputation during challenging times, but also provides a structured approach to preparing for any potential issues that may arise. 

At the core, our crisis communication services focus on three key aspects: crisis planning and preparation, live management of all stakeholder communications and post-crisis evaluation.

We help you get your message across, whoever the audience.

Our seasoned trainers have worked with senior executives from more than 100 companies across the region. Our range of workshops include media training, speaker training, investor relations training and crisis communications training.

Big and small corporate events, planned and executed to the finest detail.

Our team across our eight markets in Asia Pacific has worked on a wide range of events including corporate days, investor presentation lunches, large and small scale cocktails and dinners, anniversaries and listing celebrations, official opening of offices, media conferences, seminars and conferences. We can manage an event from the planning stage, to coordinating vendors to executing on the day.

Experts in developing and maintaining WeChat and other social media platforms.

Our China team is expert in helping companies get their message heard through the widely popular WeChat platform. We understand that regular and relevant content is the most important factor for success and we work with our clients on maintaining that drumbeat. We also help our clients develop corporate videos as well as structure and content for their website, particularly for newly-listed companies who require dedicated Investor Relations content.

Our campaigns are based on insight from robust research designed to deliver objectives.
Thorough and cleverly thought-out research conducted with the right access to sources and an analytical mind to review them can be the key to an effective communications strategy.

The communication of a company’s messages needs to be well-crafted, regular and consistent to have the desired impact. Our team of skilled writers work closely with our clients to produce sophisticated social media posts, website content, corporate video scripts and thought-leadership articles which can be placed in traditional and social media platforms.
