Trying to formulate the following condition with an IF and Concatenate

I have data in column AD

AB is my formula =IF(AC5="ISSUE PRICE",CONCATENATE(AD),CONCATENATE("BLOOMBERG"," ",AD5))

What I am trying to do is concatenate the narrative

if "Issue Price" is in the Column AD, then produce narrative "ISSUE PRICE".
If "Issue Price" is NOT in the Column AD, then create the narrative "BLOOMBERG" + whatever is present in cell ie MSG1, EQ etc so it end up being BLOOMBERG MSG1, BLOOMBERG EQ

Any ideas?

Excel Facts

Create a Pivot Table on a Map
If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
=IF(AC5="ISSUE PRICE",AD,"BLOOMBERG "& ",AD5)

wouldn't that work for what you're needing?

How about
=IF(AD5="Issue price","ISSUE PRICE","Bloomburg " & AD5)

Thank you for the amendment. How can this be amended even more if there is no data in AD so cell AB will be blank?

Many thanks

That would be: =IF(OR(AD5="",AD5="ISSUE PRICE"),AD5,"BLOOMBERG " & AD5)
