SINGAPORE, Oct 19, 2011 - (ACN Newswire) - SingTel heads the 32 companies short-listed for the upcoming IR Magazine South East Asia Awards, to be held at Singapore Exchange on December 6, 2011. The Singaporean telecommunications company features on seven award short-lists out of a total of 18, including the individual awards for best investor relations officer and best investor relations by a CFO.

These seven short lists top the six picked up in 2010 by CapitaLand, which is short-listed for six awards this year. Real estate developer CapitaLand will go head to head with SingTel to take home the grand prix for best overall IR for a second year running.

Singaporean banks DBS and OCBC are both up for four awards, followed by UOB with three. Keppel Land, StarHub and Philippine Long Distance Telephone also feature on multiple short lists. The latter company is one of 14 from Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and the Philippines that will compete for four separate country awards for best investor relations in the Singapore market.

A full list of this year's short list is available below, or on our website at www.InsideInvestorRelations.com/seasia.

The short list and the eventual winners, announced at the awards luncheon on December 6, are determined by an independent survey conducted by Mary Maude Research. During July and August, researchers spoke to more than 300 buy-side analysts, sell-side analysts and portfolio managers located in the region. Other awards categories voted for by the investment community include best corporate governance and disclosure policy, and best investor relations during a corporate transaction.

The event at Singapore Exchange will be hosted in association with Singapore Exchange and the Investor Relations Professionals Association (IRPAS), and is co-sponsored BNY Mellon Depositary Receipts.

Looking forward to this year's awards, Neil Stewart, editor-at-large of IR magazine, says: "With uncertainty in the US and Europe driving more investors into Asian emerging markets, IR is a beacon in a worldwide storm of volatility, helping distinguish companies in an increasingly macro-driven world. It is an honor to continue to recognize the best IR teams in South East Asia with these awards, while the conference will once again help to highlight trends and best practices."

IR magazine's Investor Perception Study, Asia 2011/2012, an extensive research report on the winners and short-listed companies, will be published following the event. This year's report will include the new Asia Top 50 IR ranking: a comprehensive list of the top companies across Greater China and South East Asia.
