Access to Investors
Access to leading small and mid-cap fund managers through our Fund Manager Lunch Programme and other events in an informal Chatham House environment.
Lobbying
Let us tackle and lobby on the issues that are burdensome for you. Membership ensures that the issues that you care most about are at the forefront of our agenda. We save each quoted company an estimated £150,000 per annum.
Direct access to our technical committees, either by joining one or taking part in events/discussions hosted by committees. They tackle emerging issues as well as introduce you to key legislative and regulatory decision-makers in the UK and Europe.
Information and Training
Free and reduced copies of our guidance booklets that are written in an easily digestible form and especially for small and mid-cap quoted companies. Members receive a free set of our guidance booklets (and a free copy of every new guide published).
Attendance at our free and ever-growing number of events and seminars throughout the year keeps you and your teams up-to-date on market issues and how they specifically affect companies like yours and helps you meet CPD requirements.
Full access to our website, including helpful resources in our Information Centre and our Member Forums, where you can discuss issues affecting your company with your peers.
Our monthly and quarterly newsletters keep you abreast of topical issues affecting the sector.
Free use of our IFRS 2 Share Option Valuer tool – an easy to use excel-based tool for helping you to calculate your IFRS 2 charges.
Use the QCA and its technical committees to find solutions and as a 'sounding board' for your queries and frustrations.

-

-
key small and mid-cap sector advisors who can provide a constructive challenge to your current working methods and help you grow your business;
-
fund managers to stimulate liquidity in your shares; and
-
regulatory and legislative decision-makers who can influence your future.
