In this interview Dale Gillham and small cap company director Rod North discuss what to look for in microcap stocks and what place they should have in an investor’s portfolio.

They discuss success stories, risk vs reward, and, the challenges faced by smaller companies, particularly in the race for capital.

In line with this, they also highlight the importance of good management and compliance as well as marketing by these companies, in order to build awareness and educate investors around their activities to drive engagement and market activity.

“Don’t be a shrinking violet, or, don’t be the best kept secret in the share market,” Mr North said.

“You’ve got to communicate with your shareholders, you’ve got to communicate with potential investors – globally as well these days.”
