Investor relations: perceptions of the annual statement

Abstract

Explores the perceptions of investment trust chairmen about the role of the annual statement in communications policy and management. A short survey of all investment trust chairmen was undertaken. The results identify two major themes in chairmen’s perceptions of the annual statements role. The statement communicates with individual shareholders and seeks to create good impressions and build confidence. It is primarily a one‐way exchange.
