Financial PR Services
Turquoise is one of the leading financial PR specialists in the North of England, with a client base ranging from PE, VC and other investors to corporate finance, insurance and financial services.
We combine an in-depth understanding of the corporate and financial markets with strong PR and digital skills. We also help business owners preparing for an exit and tech companies seeking investment.
Mergers, acquisitions and other deals
A corporate deal is often the culmination of many months of planning and negotiation and it is important that any announcement should convey the right messages. For a buyer that might be to explain the rationale for the deal and its potential to transform their business. A vendor may want to reassure customers about business continuity, while the advisers will want to highlight the value they have brought to the deal. A carefully crafted press release will help all parties to achieve their goals and maximise publicity about the transaction.
We regularly announce deals of all types including MBOs and MBIs, employee buy-outs (EOTs), investments and refinancing deals. We can manage the entire process – agreeing the communications strategy, liaising with stakeholders, drafting media releases and statements for staff and clients, briefing journalists, and spreading the news through social media channels.
PE, VCs, debt funds, banks and other investors
Turquoise specialises in working with investors of all types – from private equity, venture capital and angel investors to debt funds and major banks. We can provide support with fundraising (eg for EIS, SEIS and VCT funds) and announce the launch of new funds. On an ongoing basis, we will announce your investments and publicise any successful exits, while demonstrating the success and impact of the fund. We can also use PR to help to drive growth in existing portfolio companies and attract new enquiries.
Insolvencies and distressed acquisitions
Announcing an administration, pre-pack or other insolvency process requires careful wording and sensitivity. Press releases and statements need to take account of the concerns of many different parties – employees, customers, suppliers and potential buyers – and the overall strategy.
We have acted in many different cases – making announcements on behalf of insolvency practitioners,helping them to market a business or its assets, and working with buyers in rescue scenarios to help them rebuild confidence in the future of a business.
PR and marketing for other finance companies
Turquoise also has extensive experience working for other clients in the finance and financial services sectors including accountants, tax, corporate finance advisers, law firms and other advisers, IFAs, insurance, financial services and fintech companies.
