<P>&nbsp;</P>
<UL>
<LI>David worked closely with a major global financial data and credit ratings agency for 2 years following the GFC to help rebuild its reputation following heavy criticism of the sector, primarily in the US.&nbsp; 
<LI>David helped the firm address a critical need - ensuring that the full extent of this firm's capability and value to financial markets was better understood, both in the broader business community as well as within Australian financial markets 
<LI>Key to this program was broadening the range of stakeholder engagement the firm undertook. David lead the implementation of program that increased the firm's face to face engagement with key business, media and financial opinion influencers. 
<LI>As a result, the firm is now regularly sought out for comment and participation in broad industry and business forums where financial market confidence and capital attraction is a key driver<BR></LI></UL>
