Corticeira Amorim was attributed four awards in the first edition of the «Iberian Equity Awards», organised by The Spanish Association for Investor Relations (AERI), that aims to distinguish companies and professionals in the area of Investor Relations in Portugal and Spain. Within the category of Portuguese small-cap companies, based on information collected and analysis conducted by the «Institutional Investor», Corticeira Amorim obtained four of the five awards for which it was nominated: Most Improved ESG Programme; Best IR Team; Best IR Professional; and Overall Corporate Winner.
Ana Negrais de Matos, Corticeira Amorim’s Investor Relations Officer, received the Best IR Professional award. This was just recognition of Ana Negrais de Matos' solid work over recent years in the field of investor relations, and is particularly outstanding given the strength of the other candidates.
Corticeira Amorim’s Chairman and CEO, António Rios Amorim, underlines that “at Corticeira Amorim we strive on a daily basis to foster a com on good, involving thousands of people, rather than seeking individual awards. It is nonetheless always deeply satisfying to be recognised by others. Even more so when such applause is fully deserved». AERI is a non-profit association, founded in 1991, whose purpose is to serve its members and promote and improve Investor Relations of the companies listed on the Spanish Stock Exchange.
Its activity includes the promotion of initiatives focused on the professional development of its members, organisation of events and conferences, implementation of the best international practices in Investor Relations, representation of issuers before regulators and markets, and the exchange of experiences and knowledge in this field.
