Statecraft Financial Case Studies

Macro-political intelligence and Investor Relations support for Carbon Fund — A carbon fund engaged Statecraft to provide and analyse macro-political intelligence on the evolution of global carbon abatement policy. For the Fund, the global regulatory environment on both alternative energy and carbon credits was material to its ability to generate a return for investors. Statecraft provided well-researched legislative and regulatory assessments to the Fund in five key markets: Australia, the US, Europe, China and India. This involved regular dialogue with policy makers and observers in each market and the provision of bespoke assessments for presentation to investors in the UK, Asia and Australia.

Financial Communications and Corporate Affairs Strategy for Public Private Partnership (PPP) — Statecraft was engaged by a PPP to improve communications with key stakeholders—including Government, debt and equity investors, the media and ratings agencies—following the collapse of global credit markets, external contractual failures by sub-contractors and a delay in the project’s delivery schedule. Statecraft developed an integrated financial communications, corporate and public affairs strategy to help protect the interests of the PPP while effectively communicating to the diverse range of stakeholders with an interest in the project.

Financial Media Relations and Investor Briefing for launch of Australian copper producer — Statecraft consultants were part of the team that designed and executed a program to assist an ASX-listed company as it commenced operations at a flagship mine. With a number of final regulatory approvals still outstanding and the company committed to pre-signed sales contracts, external interest in the project was high. Statecraft consultants developed the messaging and a program of engagement with financial media and key investors to support the final approval process while managing the competing interests of regulators, financiers, the general media and the State Minister. The positive media coverage generated through the program, coupled with the strong endorsement of the project by policy makers, provided the client with positive analyst coverage and strengthened investor support.
