Our Story
Sager Investor Relations is a young, creative and driven company that takes pride in being a competent service provider in the field of investor relations management. The company was found at a time when the investor relations awareness level was very low in Saudi Arabia.
We identify ourselves as a fiercely independent investor relations advisory firm that understands the business, culture, and individual goals of its clients. We believe that high-quality investor relations are the symbol of successful capital markets. Here at Sager IR, we bring precision, clarity, and consistency in everything we do.
Our advisory work is an outgrowth of both our individual experiences and the collegial atmosphere in which we work together to achieve the best solutions for our clients. Sager Investor Relations was built to deliver tangible results for its clients and to deliver effective, trustworthy communications with stakeholders, and to bring a beneficial impact on the reputation and value of the company.
Our experience in the investment community is fresh. We know what makes today’s analysts tick because we know the best IR practices and we are all about making a difference for our clients. This happens through the advice we provide, the programs that we develop and implement, and the activities that we take on. All of this is done within a framework of unparalleled client service and with a passion for our work.
Sager Investor Relations has the expertise in serving clients in areas of complex legislative and regulatory structures, by offering bespoke services and solutions to assist companies in institutionalizing an IR department and support in the pre-IPO preparations.
