South East Asia investment community names the best of the best in investor relations
IR Magazine, the global voice for investor relations, announces the short lists for the IR Magazine Awards – South East Asia 2017, with winners to be announced at the event in Singapore on December 5.
Making up the short lists for some of the most coveted categories of the night – best overall investor relations and best investor relations officer – are big names such as Metro Pacific Investments – last year’s winner of an impressive five awards, as well as firms such as Bangkok Dusit Medical Services, Berli Jucker, Frasers Centrepoint Trust and Thaioil, who last year walked away with two awards.
The nominees and winners of these categories, as well as the awards for best corporate governance, best in region, best in sector, best IR by a senior management team and most progress in IR are all chosen via research and interviews with the investment community. Click here for the full short list.
Judged awards
This year marks the introduction of the new-style judged awards, self-nomination categories that allow companies to put themselves up for an award. This year’s judges include – IR Magazine deputy editor Candice de Monts-Petit; Louise Hedberg, head of corporate governance and sustainability at East Capital; Richard Jones, head of IR at Indorama Ventures; and Jeannie Ong, chief strategic partnership office from StarHub – who have narrowed down the submissions to reveal the short lists across eight categories.
In the running for awards ranging from best IR by an SGX Catalist company to best investor event and best ESG communications are companies including Astro Malaysia Holdings, PTT Global Chemical, Spackman Entertainment Group and KT Corporation. The shortlist for the judged awards can be found here.
For our awards, the latest rankings and profiles of all nominees and winners will be detailed in the IR Magazine Award-Winning IR Report – Asia 2017/2018, which will be published soon after the IR Magazine Awards & Conference – South East Asia 2017 on December 5.
The winners of both the researched and judged awards will be announced on December 5 at an awards ceremony held at the SGX in Singapore. Click here for more information on the event and how to book your place.
