INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION APPOINTS

POLHILL COMMUNICATIONS AS ITS NEW PUBLIC RELATIONS CONSULTANCY

The Investment Management Association (IMA) has appointed Polhill Communications to act as its new public relations consultancy.

The appointment followed a detailed pitch process during which Polhill Communications demonstrated a clear understanding of the investment management industry, combined with a highly innovative and creative approach.

Alongside Polhill, the Association is now keen to forge ahead with two of its key priorities - to be the first port of call for comment about investment management and to maintain and enhance the reputation and standing of the industry.

Mona Patel, Head of Communications at the IMA, commented:

“The pace of change in the fund management sector shows no sign of letting up. The influences of product development, regulation and legislation are continuing to contribute to an ever-changing environment.

During the pitch process, Polhill Communications demonstrated innovative and creative thinking which will help us to adapt to these constant changes. We are very much looking forward to working closely with the Polhill team in the development of our public relations campaign.”
