MOSCOW, July 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
PhosAgro CEO Andrey Guryev has
been named the best CEO in the chemicals sector in Institutional
Investor's inaugural Emerging EMEA Executive Team ranking for
2018.
The rating also recognised PhosAgro as a company, its CFO
Alexander Sharabaika and Head of
Investor Relations Alexander Seleznev.
Companies across 12 business sectors were voted on by more than
500 buy-side analysts, asset managers, and sell-side researchers at
nearly 300 firms, managing nearly $300
billion in equities in Emerging EMEA.
Participants were able to identify up to four companies that
excel areas such as corporate governance, accessibility of senior
executives, timely and appropriate level of financial disclosure,
quick and thorough responses to requests, constructive conference
calls, best commitment to corporate governance, as well as
insightful and useful reports on ESG/SRI metrics.
"Investing in Emerging EMEA is not for the fainthearted, with
economic and geopolitical uncertainties amongst some of the many
challenges," said Amani Korayeim, Director Sales and Product
Development All-EMEA. "But in Institutional Investor's inaugural
survey of the global investment community, a strong phalanx of
companies and leaders emerge who are excelling at cutting through
the challenges, and sharing their companies' vision and strategy
with investors." She adds, "In the absence of an objective quality
measure of IR but an increasingly institutionalized IR function in
the region, the Emerging EMEA Executive Team Survey results of
Institutional Investor, will provide an independent vehicle to
inform and benchmark companies' IR strategy and continue to help
optimize their outreach."
PhosAgro CEO Andrey Guryev said:
"I am extremely pleased that PhosAgro and several members of our
team have been recognised by the market for the excellent work we
are doing to implement our ambitious strategy aimed at sustainable
and efficient growth. We are committed to creating value for
shareholders both by delivering on our investments into expanding
capacity and by maintaining the highest standards of transparency
and corporate governance."
