In Southeast Asian markets, issuers routinely leave 20–50% on the table at IPO. The companies that invest in investor relations before listing consistently achieve better valuations, stronger analyst coverage, and more stable post-listing performance. We make sure you keep what your company is worth.
Discuss Your IPO TimelineUnderwriters optimize for deal completion — a filled book and a first-day pop. Your IR advisor optimizes for long-term value — maximum proceeds and a shareholder register that supports the stock for years.
We work alongside your transaction team to ensure that the market understands your story before, during, and after listing — so your company's valuation reflects its true potential from day one.
A well-planned and executed pre-IPO phase is the key to unlocking your company's true value. Our IPO services position your company for a successful debut and for long-term success in the capital markets.
Develop a comprehensive investor relations strategy that positions your company's equity story for maximum market reception and valuation impact. This includes peer group analysis, valuation benchmarking, and identifying the narrative angles that institutional investors will underwrite.
Build a robust pre-IPO investor targeting and engagement plan that identifies and cultivates relationships with the right institutional investors before listing.
Prepare your C-suite for roadshows, analyst meetings, and investor presentations with intensive coaching on messaging, delivery, and Q&A handling. We rehearse under pressure — including the questions the banks won’t prepare you for.
Work alongside the banking syndicate — scrutinizing the peer group, monitoring roadshow intensity, and reading the book as it builds to ensure pricing reflects your company’s true value, not just a level that clears comfortably.
Provide comprehensive feedback on all aspects of the IPO communications process — from prospectus language to investor presentation design to press strategy.
Establish the IR infrastructure — team, tools, processes, and reporting cadence — needed to perform as a publicly listed company from day one.
Our IPO experience includes PT Bank Mandiri (2003) — Indonesia’s largest IPO since the Asian financial crisis. We built the IR function from scratch nine months before listing. The result: $327 million raised, 7x+ oversubscribed, 25.9% first-day return, and three Deal of the Year awards.

Capture the full potential of your company's valuation and capital raising through a market that understands and believes in your story.
Establish trust with key stakeholders and investors before your shares begin trading — not after.
Establish a solid base of long-term, supportive institutional shareholders who understand your business and your long-term plan.
Move through the complexities of the IPO process with an experienced partner who has guided companies through successful listings for three decades.
The most impactful work happens before the banking mandate is signed — ideally 12–18 months before the target listing date. Once the syndicate is appointed and the roadshow calendar is set, the window to influence peer selection, pricing strategy, and investor targeting narrows significantly.
We work alongside the banks, not in place of them. Our role is to ensure the issuer has independent perspective on the peer group, the bookbuilding process, and the pricing dynamics — areas where the underwriters’ incentives don’t always align with yours.
The banks structure and execute the transaction. An IR adviser ensures the market understands your company well enough to value it fairly. That means developing the equity story, coaching management for investor scrutiny, and monitoring the process to protect your interests on pricing and allocation.
