在不确定局面中进行投资者沟通
Investor Communications in Times of Uncertainty
在全球企业快速行动，应对不断变化的新型肺炎疫情局面的同时，上市公司还需应对未来几个月的财报发布，准备对外利益相关方的沟通策略和内容。可能延迟的财报发布，让金融行业在担心企业能否持续经营、评估总体经济冲击之余，面临了更多不确定性。
While businesses around the world have been moving quickly to navigate the rapidly-evolving novel coronavirus epidemic， for listed companies， there is an added， inevitable need to start preparations for communication with external stakeholders as the corporate earnings season kicks off in the next few months。 The timing of disclosure will also likely be delayed， which injects further uncertainty into the financial community， in addition to concerns around business continuity and overall economic impact。
针对投资界如何进行沟通这一企业高层非常关注的问题，富事高咨询策略沟通部全球负责人马克・麦考尔提出需要注意的六个关键点。
Mark McCall， the Global Segment Leader of FTI Consultings Strategic Communications segment， pointed out six key areas that business leaders should bear in mind when communicating with the investment community。
先内后外地进行沟通，坦承短期挑战，借机重申公司长线基本面，沟通解决方案与承诺，做好准备回应关切并应对不确定局面，并将传播目标牢记心间。
Work from the inside out， Be transparent in communicating near-term challenges， Use the opportunity to reinforce the business long-term fundamentaly， Communicate solutions and commitment， be ready to respond to concerns and uncertainty， and Think about your communication goals。
马克说：“简而言之，我们的中心目标是在评估冲击、适度指引的同时，传递长期信心与企业韧性，并在两者之间谋求平衡。这将帮助公司在当今不确定的环境中稳定投资者情绪并帮他们看清局面。”
Mark said， ‘The central goal is to strike a balance between providing an assessment of the impact and measured guidance， as well as conveying long-term confidence and resilience。 This will help the company to reassure and provide clarity to investors during times of uncertainty such as the present。’
