For Danish listed and listing-ready companies, the demands around governance, compliance and investor communication continue to increase. General meetings, financial and regulatory reporting and ongoing dialogue with investors are no longer isolated activities. They are closely connected touchpoints that together shape how a company is perceived by the market. 

It was against this backdrop that Euronext Corporate Solutions, Euronext Securities and HC Andersen Capital began working more closely together. 

• Euronext Corporate Solutions supports issuers with Market Abuse Regulation compliance, enabling them to manage inside information and related obligations in a structured way. Solutions also include services and technologies helping issuers better understand their shareholders (“Shareholder identification”) and communicate with them (EngageStream). 

• Euronext Securities Copenhagen supports issuers with the formal and technical execution of general meetings, ensuring secure and compliant processes. 

• HC Andersen Capital works with investor communication and capital markets positioning, helping companies articulate their equity story and engage effectively with investors.  

Together, they recognised that closer alignment across these areas could significantly simplify how issuers manage key capital markets moments. 

Richard Waller, Chief Revenue Officer at Euronext Corporate Services, explains: 

Capital markets requirements can no longer be managed in silos. We are bringing together governance, compliance and investor communication into one coordinated framework, helping Danish issuers manage general meetings, market disclosures and investor dialogue as connected parts of a single market narrative. 

The AGM as a convergence point

The general meeting is one of the clearest examples of this challenge. It is a formal corporate organ governed by strict legal and regulatory requirements, but it is also one of the most visible investor-facing moments of the year. 

From an issuer’s perspective, the meeting must be executed securely and in full compliance, while also conveying executive messages clearly and consistently to shareholders and the wider market. 

Historically, these responsibilities have often been handled in parallel. However, working with a number of issuers each year, Euronext Securities, Euronext Corporate Services and HC Andersen Capital understood that closer alignment can significantly improve the issuer experience. 

Bringing complementary expertise together 

Through discussions with Danish issuers, the three partners identified that they were frequently supporting the same companies around the same events, each from a different angle. Marianne Benedict, Head of Nordic Investor Services at Euronext Securities Copenhagen, adds: 

By aligning our respective roles more closely, we can help companies manage these moments in a more structured and coherent way.

Each partner continues to focus on its core area of expertise, while working together to offer a comprehensive solution. 

Euronext Securities: End-to-end general meeting support 

Euronext Securities provides end-to-end general meeting support to Danish issuers, from maintaining the shareholder register to running the general meeting itself. This ensures that AGMs are executed securely, efficiently and in full compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.  

This includes key areas, such as: 

• Managing shareholder registers and ownership structures 

• Delivering meeting technology and support for physical, hybrid and virtual meetings 

• Monitoring identification, voting and proxy processes

• Ensuring documentation and regulatory compliance 

• Supporting governance, ownership structures and formal processes related to IPOs. 

By acting as the governance backbone of the general meeting, Euronext Securities provides issuers with confidence that the formal requirements are handled correctly. 

HC Andersen Capital: Communication and investor engagement 

HC Andersen Capital provides digital IR, research and advisory services, focusing on strategic communication with the capital markets. Around general meetings and other key events, this includes: 

• Developing investor communication and narrative 

• Coordinating events, media and distribution 

• Defining capital markets positioning before and after key corporate events 

• Shaping equity stories, IR setups and communication for IPOs. 

The aim is to ensure that company messages are not only accurate, but also clear, consistent and aligned with the broader investor relations strategy. 

Euronext Corporate Solutions: Supporting MAR compliance and investor communication 

Euronext Corporate Solutions supports issuers from understanding investors with shareholder identification and engaging them with webcasting services all the way to meeting their obligations using InsiderLog, a comprehensive solution for MAR compliance. Together with governance and communication, Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) compliance plays a critical role before, during and after key capital markets events. 

Key capabilities include: 

• MAR compliance support, aligned with regulatory requirements and market best practice 

• Fully compliant workflows to manage inside information, insider lists, closed periods and more 

• Ability to approve PDMR transactions and connect them to insider lists and trading windows. 

   

A more coherent experience for issuers 

For issuers, the value of the collaboration lies in the clarity and focus it creates. With responsibilities clearly defined and better aligned around key events, companies can manage governance, communication and compliance as a coherent whole rather than separate workstreams. This reduces complexity and gives issuers greater confidence that their most important investor moments are handled consistently and professionally. 

As Tue Østergaard, CEO of HC Andersen Capital, notes: 

When governance, compliance and communication are aligned, companies are better positioned to build trust with investors. This trust is built through consistency and professionalism across every interaction with the market.

A shared commitment to the Danish market 

The collaboration between Euronext Securities Copenhagen, Euronext Corporate Solutions and HC Andersen Capital reflects a shared commitment to simplify complex processes, strengthen transparency and support high-quality engagement between companies and investors. 

By working more closely together, this partnership aims to help Danish issuers navigate today’s capital markets with greater confidence, clarity and efficiency.
