Reaching out to Investor Relations for Case Studies

Hey all,

For case studies for buy side interviews, what do people typically reach out to Investor Relations or Research Analysts for?

Want to incorporate this reaching out into my analysis.

Thanks

To ask questions/clarify things about the company. Assuming you know that and meant what kind of questions, that depends more on the types of questions you want answered and what you know these people can/will legally divulge...

 

Iure et eveniet provident. Dicta sunt qui tempora sit eaque quae sed. Quos non quia animi quia harum et blanditiis. Omnis illum ea velit voluptatum molestiae facere in blanditiis. Velit rerum incidunt quisquam perferendis architecto sit fugit hic.

I used to do Asia-Pacific PE (kind of like FoF). Now I do something else but happy to try and answer questions on that stuff.
