About

Investor Relations is the communication of information and insight between a company and the investment community. This process enables a full appreciation of the company’s business activities, strategy and prospects and allows the market to make an informed judgement about the fair value and appropriate ownership of a company.

Our organisation is dedicated to championing best practices in investor relations, supporting the professional growth of our members, and facilitating meaningful dialogue between companies and investors.

We actively work to build a strong sense of community among our members, fostering connections and collaboration. We promote excellence in investor relations, advocate for our members, and are dedicated to responsive and transparent communication within the investment community to build trust and reliability. At our core, we advance the investor relations profession by prioritising transparency, fairness, and continuous development for our members. We drive the adoption of best practices in investor relations, represent our members’ interests, and enhance engagement between issuers and investors to foster sustainable relationships. 

Through education, advocacy, and promoting effective communication, we provide timely and steadfast support to investor relations professionals and champion the growth and development of the profession.

At The Investor Relations Society, our values are the foundation of everything we do. They define who we are, guide our decisions, and inspire us to create meaningful impact for our members, employees, and wider communities. 

These principles reflect our commitment to excellence, integrity, and innovation, serving as a compass that keeps us aligned with our mission and vision. By living these values every day, we build trust, foster collaboration, and drive sustainable growth. Together, they represent not just what we believe, but how we bring those beliefs to life.
