HONG KONG, May 24, 2024 – (ACN Newswire) – The Quam IR Awards 2023 (“QIRA” or “The Awards”) ceremony was held at the Hong Kong Four Seasons Hotel on 24 May 2024, recognising investor relations teams that are adapting to the times and outstanding companies demonstrating excellent sustainable development management in a rapidly changing environment.
Transparent and fair corporate disclosure promotes healthy financial markets
Fairness and transparency of information disclosure to the public are very important factors that the public considers when making investment decisions. This not only enhances the public’s understanding of companies, but also helps promote the healthy development of financial markets. The Quam IR Awards is proud to recognize the most outstanding listed companies in the investor relations industry. QIRA winners open the door to communication through diverse channels and embody the finesse and professionalism of investor relations. The enthusiasm for the 9th Quam IR Awards can be seen from the submissions. A total of 13 companies distinguished themselves from their competitors and won the awards.
Special Award for Sustainable Development Achievements
To recognize organizations’ performance and contributions in the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals, Quam IR has again this year partnered with Hong Kong Sustainability Strategic Advisory Limited (HKSSA), a consulting firm focusing on corporate sustainable development capabilities, to professionally select winners of the “Sustainable Development Category” awards and recognize companies that have demonstrated outstanding overall performance in ESG aspects.
In addition, there are three special awards: “Sustainable Development Report of the Year”, “Sustainable Development Carbon Management Award” and “Sustainable Development Carbon Management Approach of the Year”. These awards aim to highlight companies that have demonstrated exemplary performance in protecting the environment, especially in energy-saving and carbon-reduction efforts.
Uncertain macroeconomic climate highlights importance of investor relations
May Mak, Chief Financial Officer of Quamplus Financial Group In his opening remarks, he said, “Our investors are more than just funders. They are partners who share our vision and help us grow. We value their trust and understand the importance of a transparent and caring relationship. That’s why investor relations plays a key role in promoting transparency, trust and effective communication between our companies and investors.”
Dr. Armie Yang, Chief Investment Officer at Quamplus Financial Group, said: “2023 was another turbulent year for the Hong Kong market amid ongoing geopolitical conflicts, policy changes in China and high interest rates. While all other major markets recorded gains in 2023, the HSI fell 13.8%. In times of market uncertainty, the role of IR becomes even more important,” he said. “The market recovered due to easing of southbound stock connectivity and growing interest from the West. All of the winners’ stock prices performed well. Let’s move forward together and embrace the challenges and opportunities ahead,” he said, praising all the winners.
Strong support from industry and media
Quam IR invited Honorary Guests to attend the grand event include Mr Robert Li, Member for Financial Services (Functional Constituency) of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong; Dr Alvin Ho, President of the Hong Kong Institute of CFA; Dr Gordon Tze Luen Ong, Permanent Honorary Chairman of the Hong Kong Securities Association; and Professor Yan Siu, Deputy Director of the Centre for Business Strategy and Innovation, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
The 9th Quam IR Awards was successfully concluded thanks to the support of the business community, media representatives and sponsors in Hong Kong and Mainland China. Supporting media partners include the Hong Kong Chamber of Listed Companies, the Hong Kong Association of Independent Directors, the Hong Kong CFA Institute, Ming Pao, Cai Ho, FX168 and FX678.
