Candidacy & Training
IR Advantage has trained listed company executives at every level — from the boardroom to the IR desk. For several years, we partnered with The Indonesia Capital Market Institute (TICMI), the Indonesia Stock Exchange’s dedicated training body, to deliver both ICIR certification and bespoke IR training programmes.
- ICIR (International Certificate in Investor Relations) — IR Society UK qualification delivered locally by IR Advantage
- Customized IR workshops for boards, C-suite executives, and IR teams
- Presentation skills and investor communication coaching
- Capital markets literacy programmes for non-financial executives
- Ongoing professional development and best-practice benchmarking
ICIR Certification
The ICIR is the global gold standard for investor relations professionals — and IR Advantage is the exclusive delivery partner in Indonesia.

Finding qualified IR professionals in Indonesia is difficult. Our deep network and understanding of the IR function means we can identify candidates who combine technical competence with the communication skills that make great investor relations officers.
- Executive search for IR directors, managers, and officers
- Candidate assessment based on functional IR competencies

The IR Talent Gap
The best IR professionals are part analyst, part communicator, part strategist. We know what to look for because we've built IR programmes from the ground up — and we know the difference a great hire makes.
Tech & Tools
Partnering with global service providers, we implement the technology infrastructure that modern IR functions require — from investor-facing websites to CRM systems and market data platforms.
- IR website development for effective investor communications
- Real-time market data feeds for enhanced investor decision-making
- CRM systems for tracking investor interaction and investment history
- Investor communications distribution channel setup
- Access to industry and peer research platforms
- Earnings call aggregation and analytics tools
Modern IR Stack
Technology doesn't replace relationships — it amplifies them. The right tools give your IR team leverage to do more with less.
How we work
Can we engage IR Advantage for a single service area?
Yes. While the six service areas are designed to work together, most engagements start with one or two — typically strategic advisory or investor targeting. We scope each engagement to what you actually need, not a fixed package.
Do you work with companies outside Indonesia?
Our core practice is Indonesian issuers and pre-IPO companies, but we work with listed companies across Southeast Asia and the broader APAC region. The methodology is the same; the market-specific knowledge is adapted.
What’s the difference between strategic advisory and outsourced IR?
Strategic advisory means we work alongside your team — setting direction, building capability, and running specific workstreams. We don’t replace your IR function; we make it stronger. For companies without an IR team, we can operate as interim IR while recruiting permanent staff.
How do engagements typically begin?
With an IR Gap Assessment — a complimentary diagnostic that maps your equity story, fact base, targeting, and management readiness against institutional expectations. It takes one conversation and produces a clear picture of where the gaps are.
Which IR challenges are you facing?
Whether you need to build an IR function from scratch, prepare for an IPO, or defend a valuation under pressure — we start by mapping your priorities against what moves the needle fastest. Every quarter without systematic investor engagement is a quarter your valuation gap persists.
