The rules

Financial PR has to respect financial regulation

Financial promotions (FSMA section 21)Content that invites people to invest or take a financial product can be a financial promotion. A genuine news story usually is not, but company-written articles, sponsored content and social posts can be. We flag anything that needs your compliance team or an approver to sign it off.
FCA Consumer DutySince July 2023, firms must give consumers clear, fair information. Press claims about returns, fees or outcomes need to match what customers actually get.
Market announcementsFor listed companies, inside information must be announced through the proper channel before it reaches journalists. We time media work around your announcements, never ahead of them.

We are a PR firm, not a compliance adviser. We work alongside your compliance team, not instead of it.

What we do

Financial PR services

Booked features in named titles

Placements from our partner list, with the title and go-live date agreed in writing before work starts. Live by that date, or a 100% refund.

Editorial pitching

Comment, data stories and interviews pitched to personal finance, business and trade desks. Editors decide what runs, so we never guarantee pitched coverage.

Expert comment programme

Your specialists ready with sharp, approved lines on rates, budgets and market moves, sent while the story is live.

Reputation and crisis

Holding statements, media handling and search clean-up when a complaint, fine or story threatens trust.

Search and AI

When clients ask ChatGPT about you

Investors and clients now ask AI assistants which firms to trust. Those answers come from what trusted publications and review sites say. Consistent, accurate coverage in recognised titles is what changes the answer, and it also lifts what Google shows when people search your firm’s name.

FAQ

Financial PR: common questions

Do you work with FCA-regulated firms?

Yes. We write with FCA rules in mind and flag anything that may be a financial promotion, so your compliance team can approve it before publication.

Can you guarantee coverage in the Financial Times?

We guarantee booked placements in named titles from our partner list, agreed and dated in writing. Titles outside that list, such as the FT, decide for themselves what they run, so coverage we pitch there cannot be guaranteed.

Do you only work in London?

No. Many clients are in the City and Canary Wharf, but we work with firms across the UK and worldwide.

How much does financial PR cost?

It depends on the titles and the scope, so there is no fixed price list. You get a written plan and quote after the free call.
