The citation in the field of investor relations is also special as there is a conscious effort for me and my colleagues to reach out to our stakeholders. We’re also spearheading efforts to further improve investor relations practice among the listed companies through various initiatives, one of which is the possible creation of a Philippine investor relations organization,” PSE President and CEO Hans B. Sicat said.
