Companies qualify when they excel in transparency and disclosure. The professional will then ensure that investors have access to this information, ensures availability of members of the Management Board – and increasingly members of the Supervisory Board -, and will provide a valuable dialogue with financial audiences. There are always companies that are nominated every year, but it is also great to see companies being nominated for the first time. Clearly, more and more companies pay close attention to their relationships with their financial stakeholders. It is wonderful to highlight this together with the NEVIR," Uneke Dekkers, NEVIR board member, said. The nominations are based on research by WeConvene Extel, combined with additional research among investors and analysts, conducted by communications agency Citigate First Financial. An independent jury will determine the winners in the various categories. Last year’s winners are excluded from participation. The tenth edition of the Dutch IR Awards will take place on Thursday January 12, 2017 in Studio21 in Hilversum. There, in the presence of more than 200 industry professionals, the winners will be announced.
