DUBAI, (Pakistan Point News - 30th Sep, 2018) First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB), has been named ‘Leading Corporate for Investor Relations in the middle East’ at the 2018 Middle East IR Association (MEIRA) Annual Awards ceremony, which recently took place at the Bulgari Resort in Dubai.
The bank also scooped two further awards at the event; the ‘Leading Corporate for Investor Relations in the UAE’ for the second consecutive year, while the Head of Investor Relations at FAB, Sofia El Boury, was named the ‘Best Investor Relations Professional in the UAE’, bringing the overall tally to three awards. The wins underscore FAB’s commitment to investor relations best practice.
The awards recognise top Investor Relations leaders in the region for the quality of their work and are based on the results of the MENA Extel Survey - the leading survey of the investment community. As part of the survey, buy- and sell-side analysts vote to pick the top performers in each market every year.
El Boury said, "We are incredibly proud to have received such recognition from our partners and peers in the investment community. Each award serves as testament to the robust relationships FAB has built, and continues to build upon, with investors and analysts. As we continue to grow stronger, these accolades motivate us to achieve even greater heights. We would like to take this opportunity to thank MEIRA for its unrelenting support over the past decade to promoting best investor relations practice in the region, and supporting the development of capital markets."
