The ‘10 Steps’ process is designed to concentrate SRI communications within one tightly-managed period of time. So, now, take a break from SRI communications and concentrate on making your core business more sustainable.
Companies should designated a closed period during which they will not respond to SRI requests. Typically this should run from two weeks after their last roadshow until the publication of their financial results statement (& SRS)
It will be hard to say ‘no’ to investor requests that arrive outside a company’s designated ‘open’ period. But, remember how much time you’ll be saving and be strong!
