From the Paper:

"Investor relations are any activity leading to the disclosure of information required by compliance and to make good investment judgments. (Farlex 2006) Most large companies are publicly traded, having one person collect information on competitors, annual reports, and distribution of information to their investors. Investor relations could possibly have a large legal impact in conjunction with the share price of company stock if the information is not correct. Giving an investor timely information will ensure the investor continues to have an interest in the company. Communication management plays a part in investor relations due to the information that is gathered for those investors."
