Capital markets PR

Capital markets PR for a changing landscape
The infrastructure of modern trading is transforming – from post-trade processing to digital asset custody, new technologies are reshaping the capital markets. We help clients at every layer of the financial stack tell sharper, more credible stories about what they do and why it matters.
With 25 years of experience across the front, middle and back office, Cognito works with both global institutions and emerging innovators. We know how to translate complex propositions around blockchain, market structure, and AI into campaigns that resonate with investors, regulators and the media.
Our programmes combine media relations, owned content, analyst engagement and paid marketing – all underpinned by a deep understanding of institutional finance.
