Ipreo and Singapore Exchange to Host Fifth Annual "Investor Relations Wisdom Summit"

Investor relations education series returns to Singapore for the second time

Hong Kong - August 18, 2016 - Ipreo, a global leader in providing market intelligence, data, and technology solutions to all participants across the capital markets, and Singapore Exchange (SGX) announced it will again be hosting its world-class educational experience in four cities in Asia from Wednesday, September 7, through Wednesday, September 14, 2016. The "IR Wisdom Summit" is designed to promote the investor relations profession through increased education, awareness and networking. The Singapore event will take place on Wednesday, September 14th at the SGX auditorium.

The IR Wisdom Summit represents a unique opportunity for investor relations professionals in the region to benefit from an exclusive gathering of influential local, regional and international financial industry experts and peers. This year's agendas include keynotes and moderated panel sessions on such topics as best practices in investor relations, the changing equity and debt capital markets, communicating with the investment community, and corporate governance trends, with a top-notch line-up of speakers that includes IROs, CFOs, fund managers, and other industry experts.

"The success of Wisdom over the past four years confirms our premise that education and the exchange of ideas - on the markets, on the investment community, on IR best practices - is extremely important to the growth and development of the vital function of investor relations in public companies," said Chris Taylor, EVP, Global Research and Thought Leadership for Ipreo. "We are very pleased to be helping to elevate the investor relations function by bringing practical content and expertise directly to IR practitioners."

This year's event is once again being produced in partnership with SGX and the Investor Relations Professions Association Singapore (IRPAS). "SGX believes investor relations play a key role in the success of Singapore's capital markets through improved transparency and better communication. SGX is pleased to be supporting the growth of the profession through this IR Summit in conjunction with Ipreo and IRPAS," said Chng Lay Chew, Chief Financial Officer, SGX. "The insights and networking opportunities this program provides will be extremely valuable to our investor relations professionals."

Harold Woo, President of IRPAS, added, "The continued progress in the elevation of the IR profession in Singapore means that international best-practice education is more important than ever. IRPAS is delighted to partner again with Ipreo and SGX to bring the IR Wisdom Summit to IR professionals in Singapore."
