IR Magazine has announced the winners of the IR Magazine Awards – Brazil 2016, the annual prestigious awards that celebrate investor relations and recognize excellence in transparency and communication with investors.
Kroton was the night’s biggest winner, taking home four awards, including the grand prix for best overall investor relations (large cap). The list of winners includes other companies that have performed extremely well at the awards over a number of years, such as Itaú Unibanco (two awards in 2016) and Anima (also two awards).
The results were decided by a survey of more than 100 analysts and investors independently conducted by Eleven Financial Research. The winners were announced last night at a gala awards event in São Paulo attended by hundreds of members of the Brazilian IR community.
