MTN Group Recognised for its Investor Relations at the Inaugural Intellidex Awards
MTN Group has been recognised as having one of South Africa’s finest Investor Relations teams, scooping three awards at the inaugural Intellidex Top Investor Relations SA Survey Awards.
Investment analysts and portfolio managers surveyed for the awards placed MTN Group first in the industrial sector, third among large cap stocks listed on the JSE, as well as third in the overall rankings.
“MTN Group is honoured to have received this recognition, which is evidence of our commitment to transparent communication with our stakeholders, in this case the investment community. We strive to keep the capital markets appraised of our progress as we execute on our Ambition 2025 strategy, which is centred around driving accelerated growth, faster deleveraging, and revealing value within its financial investments and platforms.”
Tsholo Molefe, CFO, MTN Group
Respondents shared their views on the quality of investor relations among JSE-listed companies and were asked to rank the best and worst five companies among those they cover. They were also asked to rank these companies on a number of factors including the quality of engagement with senior management, annual reports, notes to the financial accounts, presentations, earnings and booklets.
“We are humbled by the recognition and grateful to our investors, analysts and other stakeholders who engage MTN. This feedback is invaluable in driving our Investor Relations programme and journey of progress. It’s also important to acknowledge the hard work of the Investor Relations team at MTN, the collaboration of the various teams within the Group as well as the guidance and support of Management and the Board. It is all critical in enriching MTN’s Investor Relations effort.”
Thato Motlanthe, Executive for Investor Relations, MTN Group
The introduction of this survey is expected to improve engagement by listed companies with the investment community, with this ultimately encouraging better communication.
