Votes in emerging EMEA increased by a quarter year-on-year, highlighting the growing interest in independent feedback on corporate activities and capital markets engagement.

The categories are: Best CEO. Best CFO. Best IR Expert; Best IR Team; Best IR Program; Best ESG Program; Best Investor/Analyst Day and Best Corporate Board Meeting. One of MTN’s strategic priorities is “Creating Shared Value”. The key to this is engaging with stakeholders, including the investment community.
