The essential tool for ASX listed companies
Being listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) immediately increases the potential scrutiny from the media, investment analysts, regulators and the public in general.
Having an experienced communications person in your company is a good first step in addressing media inquiries. Media monitoring can also be a helpful tool to monitor your own brand sentiment as well as your competitors and industry relevant news.
The problem with the above approach is it misses one key component, pre-media events, discoverable in publicly available government data. Think court filings, parliamentary submissions, ASIC liquidation notices and more.
Prior to the creation of our software at the end of 2018, it was a lot of work for the media to comb through many government websites looking for public interest issues to report on. Seven years later, our software is a lot more advanced and monitors even more publicly available government datasets.
When the media ask for comment, it's already too late.
A majority of the investigative media teams in Australia are using DATAV3, many every day, to identify potential stories or dig deep on a project of interest. Our users tell us they regularly break stories after receiving our Daily Reports and Alerts. Some investment analysts use our software to monitor their portfolio, with daily updates.
It’s important to be acutely aware of your exposure in a timely way, which is an important factor to consider as a listed entity. Given our software is the only of its kind with the unique datasets and products, we can reliably tell you that most ASX listed companies have not incorporated DATAV3 into their communications team workflow yet.
With more investigative journalists using DATAV3, along with investment analysts, lawyers and some regulators, it makes sense to know what they know, when they know it.
