Revamp, Reenergize, Resonate: A Spring Guide to Better IR Materials

Like everything else in life, investor materials benefit from a good spring cleaning. After the chaos of earnings season, take the time to review your investor deck and one-pager so they’re in top shape before the summer lull. Here are three ways to ensure your materials are as polished and effective as possible:

  1. Declutter: Don’t just update your numbers - review every slide and section to ensure it actively contributes to your investment story. If something isn’t adding value, cut it. Too much information can dilute your message and lose investor interest.

  2. Refresh the Look: Avoid the “banking blues” - bland color schemes and generic graphics can make your materials forgettable. Keep it professional yet visually engaging with a clean, modern design that enhances readability.

  3. Test the Flow: After multiple revisions, it’s easy to overlook narrative gaps. Bring in a fresh pair of eyes to review your deck and one-pager. A well structured flow should make your investment story clear, compelling, and easy to follow.
