Sunshine Holdings PLC emerged the third best in investor relations
from among the country's 296 listed corporates, at the 2015 edition of
'Capital Market Awards' hosted by the CFA Sri Lanka Institute.
Following the shortlisting of the best 16 corporates in the sphere of
investor relations, they were scrutinized by a panel of judges. Top
investors, analysts, regulators and industry stakeholders were present.
Managing Director, Sunshine Holdings PLC Group, Vish Govindasamy
said, "As a strong investor relations function is closely linked with
financial transparency and accountability, we are pleased to receive
this award, which recognizes Sunshine Holdings as an honest and
transparent entity."
"With the country entering a phase of economic growth in which there
is increasing emphasis on Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and foreign
tie-ups, it is critical for corporates to strengthen investor relations
to meet the standards stipulated by global investors," he said.
"Adopting a long-term growth strategy, Sunshine Holdings has long
understood this need and remains committed to further improvement in
this sphere," Govindasamy said. Sunshine Holdings PLC is a diversified
holding company contributing to 'nation building' by creating value in
vital sectors of the Sri Lankan economy - including healthcare,
agribusiness, fast moving consumer goods and renewable energy. |
