Investor relationship management
Overview
We value our relationships with all analysts
and investors. We are committed to timely
and transparent communications to keep the
investment community apprised of significant
developments of a-iTrust.
Care is exercised to avoid selective disclosure
of material information. All price sensitive
information is released to investors at the
same time via the Singapore Exchange and
a-iTrust¡¯s corporate website, in accordance
with regulatory requirements.
We closely monitor investors¡¯ perceptions and
expectations of a-iTrust and actively convey
that information to our Board of Directors
(¡°Directors¡±). Major Unitholders¡¯ views are
canvassed in a detailed investor survey which is
conducted annually by an external consultant.
The investor perception report is sent in its
entirety to Directors so that they may take into
consideration investors¡¯ views when reviewing
our performance and planning our strategy.
We actively engage sell-side analysts and
institutional investors via face-to-face meetings
and conference calls. All requests from institutional
investors to meet management are met insofar
as our schedules permit. Besides quarterly
earnings conference calls, we participate in local
and overseas investor conferences and non-deal
roadshows to meet Unitholders and potential
investors. Apart from such discussions, we also
conduct site visits to our properties in India
for fund managers and analysts. These visits
provide them with first-hand insight into the
overall quality of a-iTrust¡¯s portfolio. Individual
Unitholders are given the opportunity to
meet and seek clarification from Directors and
management at each annual general meeting.
We focus on responding to all queries from
individual Unitholders in a timely fashion.
In FY15/16, we met or spoke to 180 analysts
and investors. The charts on the right show
