Turbulence – Computershare’s friend or foe?
----- End of picture text -----
› Turbulent markets (down or up) are better for Computershare than markets that are becalmed.
› Despite the analyst fetish with reported M&A stats, the current turbulent times are driving good corporate action revenues – we’re working on capital raisings rather than on takeovers.
› Falls in interest rates in some markets is a negative, but (a) we have reasonable hedge cover (both natural and synthetic) and (b) size of balances is just as important a driver of margin revenues as interest rate levels.
› In any case, geographic and business diversification provides a portfolio effect protection when particular markets and product lines suffer.
