(ˈkɔr nərˌstoʊn), noun

We are a communications agency based in Bucharest, Romania, specialized in public relations (PR), investor relations (IR) and capital markets advisory. We are a boutique firm, working primarily with local SMEs from a variety of sectors as well as we have a diverse portfolio of international companies that are active on the Romanian market.
Established in January 2018, our firm boasts a diverse array of Clients. We provide the highest quality integrated communications and advisory services to companies that are already listed on Bucharest Stock Exchange’s Main and Junior Markets as well as to entrepreneurial businesses that want to increase their profile on the local market. Having worked with a number of local and international investment funds and financial institutions, we are also specialized in high-impact financial communication.
We believe that good communication is the cornerstone of any successful business. At Cornerstone, we do not improve only the image, but most importantly, we lay down conditions to improve the valuation of our Clients’ businesses and we contribute to the success of intended transactions.
There is much more to Investor Relations than presenting financial statements. IR is an integral part of sound corporate governance and has to be considered as an investment, not an expense. Valuations are increasingly shaped not only by transparency, but also by the quality of communication, openness to investors and the viability of the company’s equity story.
Cornerstone Communications can help your company gain more information disclosure, press coverage, share-trading volume, institutional investor ownership, analyst following, and as a result, therefore – an improved, fair market valuation.
Possessing a deep understanding of the local capital markets, its mechanisms as well as nuances, we offer unique products and investor relations advisory services.
We are fully equipped to support companies in any of the following situations: willing to improve their communication with the market for the long-term benefit of increased valuation, intending to raise funds through either equity or debt instruments, looking for investment opportunities, entering new markets or participating in M&A transactions, eyeing new product or services development. We assist companies in pre-IPO, IPO and Private Placement of both equities and bonds, ensuring that the communication with the market is beneficial for the company’s valuation.
We build connections between companies and investors such as individual and institutional investors, brokerage houses, data providers, local media as well as opinion makers.
Our services are based on profound knowledge and understanding of the Romanian capital market environment. We blend experience and expertise with an understanding of the local market and its realities, offering an objective view on both its advantages as well as challenges.
All our services are by default offered bilingually, in English and Romanian language.
