The 2016 All-Asia (ex-Japan) Executive Team is an annual ranking of Asian corporate leaders based on a survey of 1,394 investment professionals at 582 financial institutions. The voters include buy-side analysts, money managers and sell-side researchers who cast their votes to rank the best chief executive officers, chief financial officers and investor relations professionals. All votes are weighted by place (first, second, third or fourth), whereas the topline rankings in each of these four categories are based on combined buy side and sell side votes.
The attributes for ranking IR performance are having accessible board members and senior executives, responding quickly and thoroughly to requests, providing timely and accurate disclosure of essential financial information and so on.
