Lauder Teacher Associates as an advisory and consultancy firm.
LTA offers advisory services with a focus on corporate strategy, communications, investor relations, crisis management, policy and advocacy, all driven by market leading research and analysis. LTA operates in the real estate, housing, infrastructure and wider built environment sectors.
Strategic Communications
Real estate, housebuilding, and the wider built environment is a highly politicised one that garners great media attention at every turn. Perception, from a public, political and investor perspective, shapes future business agendas and drives investment outcomes. LTA specialises in sifting through complex messaging to selectively communicate the most compelling stories across key audiences – from internal stakeholders, current and future investors, lenders, to media, and beyond. We utilise our extensive networks across top-tier media outlets and industry news channels with our unparalleled expertise in the business of making the right news, or, equally, keeping the wrong messages out of the news. We tailor strategies to our clients’ unique situations, and we have a track record of developing innovative solutions for challenging conditions.
Investor Relations
Utilising our unrivalled global investor network, and respected industry reputation, we engage with a range of capital providers from household name family offices to market leading institutional investors to identify, review, and assess options and directions for our clients. We carefully screen the buy side community to deliver best-in-class investor relations support and intelligence for our clients through the full life cycle of their business, from targeting and refining the messaging, to fundraising strategies, reporting and investor roadshows to identify exit and re-structuring opportunities. With unrivalled independence, a robust track record and deep sector expertise in both public and private markets across the UK and Ireland, our insight has consistently driven significant investor value throughout cycles.
Policy, Government Relations and Advocacy
For businesses operating in politically charged environments such as housing and development, achieving their objectives requires comprehensive engagement strategies and tactics, built on much more than traditional political access, for managing policymakers and other public stakeholders. More so than anything this relies on personal relationships and access. Our founders are experts in navigating decision-making processes and political institutions across the UK, Ireland, and wider European Union. We have direct deep experience in political advocacy and campaigns that deliver results for our clients.
Research, Data, and Analytics
Everything we do is backed up with best in class thought leadership developed through a deep understanding of our markets and industry. This is developed through our data-intensive research programmes and analysis, many of which has been recognised as industry leading and pioneering in the real estate sector. Our clients demand a high standard of evidence to support their decisions and objectives. Utilising our deep industry knowledge and wide network of experts, LTA helps its clients to conduct robust and relevant research and analysis, while understanding how to present and communicate findings for maximum impact.
