If passive investing is reshaping who owns your stock, what does that mean for your IR strategy?

Join us at CIRI’s Senior Leadership Day in Toronto on Wednesday October 7 for a dynamic session that will unpack the trends behind the growth of index products and ETFs and explain what this means for IR teams.

Graham MacKenzie, Managing Director of Exchange Traded Products at the TMX Group will provide perspective on why these vehicles continue to grow in popularity and the questions you should be asking.

This thought-provoking session will challenge assumptions, spark conversation and offer a fresh perspective on preparing for the leadership challenges ahead.

Thank you to our sponsor TMX Group.

Upcoming Hot Topic Webinar: Preparing for Shareholder Activism in the AI Era – October 6, virtual

Activists can now analyze public information, benchmark companies against peers, identify perceived operational, financial, governance and communications weaknesses, and develop highly targeted campaigns faster than ever before.

Alyssa Barry, CPIR, President, Alliance Advisors IR and Jacob Cawker, Partner, Cassels will examine how companies can become activist-ready in an AI-enabled environment. Our panel will discuss how to identify vulnerabilities before they become an activist thesis, stress-test the company’s equity story, and prepare the board, management, investor relations, legal and communications teams to respond effectively.

They will also focus on the human side of activism defense, building trust, maintaining ongoing shareholder dialogue, listening to concerns and developing relationships well before a challenging situation emerges.
