Support CIRI as the Voice of IR in Canada
CIRI’s mandate is to contribute to the transparency and integrity of the Canadian capital market by advancing the practice of IR, the professional competency of its members and the stature of the profession. A key component of fulfilling this mandate is keeping members apprised of important issues affecting IR and proactively advocating to effect change.
These activities are driven by CIRI’s Issues Committee, which is responsible for identifying and analyzing important issues and their impact on IR. The Committee informs members of the issues, explaining their impact on IROs through publications and events.
If the issue has the potential to significantly impact IROs, CIRI will prepare comments for submission. These are informed through surveys or discussions with CIRI members and are considered in a broad context to ensure that CIRI’s position upholds the transparency and integrity of the capital markets. If beneficial, CIRI will seek alliances with other associations to increase awareness of an issue and strengthen CIRI’s voice.
