Barrio10010

owned investor relations firms with a truly international reach. Most of our clients are US corporations headquartered in the US and trading on US exchanges, but we have developed a wide-ranging expertise as well in dealing with international corporations. Many clients are headquartered in Europe, Australasia or Asia, but are trading on US exchanges, some with ADRs or GDRs, and others with “native” US shares. Some clients trade on multiple exchanges, and we are adept at understanding and applying the rules and customs of different exchanges. Our proprietary databases, maintained for more than a decade are national and international in scope, with more than 27,000 fund managers and buyside analysts and 7,500 sellside analysts. Our professional staff has a broad range of backgrounds, formal education and streetwise experience that helps us bring a distinctive approach to the tasks of establishing an appropriate positioning strategy, then creating and forwarding continuous, seamless communications strategies and pro-active awareness campaigns for our clients. We are experienced in organizing financial conferences; conducting opinion surveys of fund managers and analysts; preparing private companies for an Initial Public Offering; and setting up and conducting non-deal road trips all over North America, the UK, and Europe. We have also worked with investment banks in developing target lists for public and private offerings, and have set up road trips for depositary banks on a private-label basis. The most common goals of our investor relations programs are to improve awareness among target audiences – primarily institutional investors – and to improve liquidity in the trading of our clients’ securities. Long-term account retention has been a hallmark of Allen & Caron, and client additions have been primarily secured as a result of client referrals or recommendations from investment banks, institutional portfolio managers, sellside analysts and other professional associates. We believe that the quality, scope and value of the services we provide our clients is reflected by their loyalty and by the fact that our primary sources of new business opportunities are our clients and industry associates.

fingerposts that we think will help people find their own ways. We are an investor relations firm, and we will mark any clients we mention with an asterisk (*).
