New Communication Technologies

Not Without Concern
IROs have various concerns when it comes to
employing a NCT for Investor Relations.
#1 - Lack of Demand
There is a perceived lack of demand
for receiving Financial Information via
NCT
#2 – Institutional > Retail
NCT are primarily for
communicating with retail
shareholders
#3 - No Requests for Data
Nobody is asking IROs to start
using NCT for Investor Relations
#4 - Maintenance Cost
Maintaining NCT is too expensive
#5 - Time
Building & Maintaining NCT will
eat up too much time for IROs
#6 – Giving too much Information
NCT poses a risk that too much
company info will be ‘out there’
Where do these come from?
1998 Report – NIRI Survey on corporate
disclosure policy
1999 Report - Presentation of financial
information on
corporate websites
NIRI’s 2013 Survey
Lack of Investor Demand
Management does not see value
Lack of Resources
Can’t control the message
Don’t understand it
Company policy excludes its use
