How We Work

A snapshot of Peregrine’s Services

Media RelationsMedia relations are at the core of our communications offering and we have extensive contacts across all relevant media. We work with clients to build a targeted strategy that ensures maximum exposure across all target media to achieve the campaign’s objectives.

Peregrine has worked successfully with many clients to develop thought leadership programmes and brand building to achieve a campaign’s objectives.

Crisis and RestructuringOne badly-handled issue can destroy a company’s reputation and years of good work. We work with clients to manage any issues that arise, often diffusing a potential crisis before it has a lasting impact on a firm’s standing.

The results of this process can then be used to formulate a communications strategy and the design of marketing materials.

Peregrine has both the experience and expertise to create a web presence that interacts with users and integrates with any marketing activities.

The Fund appreciated 1.7% in May. With the completion of the US earnings season, market focus returned to the strength of the economy and to signs of any action to be taken by the US Federal Reserve. The Fed chair, Janet Yellen, artfully balanced her upbeat outlook for the US economy against concerns over potentially slower job growth and weakness in the housing market to signal that interest rates may remain lower for longer. The narrative from other senior Fed committee members was suitably dovish, tracking the mixed nature of data from the While the US economy shrank by 1.0% in the first three months of the year (the weakness largely due to the drawdown in inventories as companies chose not to restock in the face of extreme weather), May’s PMI for manufacturing increased at its fastest pace in nearly three years and suggests that economic growth should rebound over the second quarter. While many well known global risks remain to be fully resolved, the Investment Adviser believes that the outlook for US Equities will benefit from positive momentum of an improving and increasingly stable global financial system, low inflation, slow global economic growth, low interest rates and growing corporate earnings. The Investment Adviser considers that the valuation of the portfolio, given its growth profile at 18.3 times earnings, remain attractive in the current global economic environment in comparison to the wider market, (the S&P500 Index currently trades on a multiple of 17.7).
