China Telecom, Infosys Are Among the Winners of Asia's Best Analyst Days

New Institutional Investor Ranking Highlights the Region's Must-Attend Events for Financial Professionals


NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Jun 29, 2015) -  China Telecom, India's Infosys and South Korea's Samsung Electronics Co. are among the top-ranked companies in Institutional Investor's inaugural ranking of Asia's Best Analyst Days.

Complete survey results can be found at www.institutionalinvestor.com/rankings.

To be successful, an analyst day -- or capital markets day, as the events are sometimes called -- must provide an opportunity for portfolio managers and sell-side researchers to get to know the executive teams of the companies they cover, learn about their short- and long-term objectives, gain a greater understanding of the business dynamics, and have their questions answered promptly and thoroughly.

Not all companies prove adept at hosting such events. To find out which ones outperform their peers, Institutional Investor asked buy- and sell-side participants in the 2015 All-Asia Executive Team survey -- the magazine's exclusive annual ranking of the region's best corporate leaders and investor outreach programs -- to identify the events they deem most helpful.

II received responses from more than 1,160 investment professionals at close to 490 financial services firms. Respondents from the buy side work at firms that collectively manage some $970 billion in Asian (ex-Japan) equities.

A total of 48 companies in 16 industry sectors earn an appearance on this inaugural roster. These businesses span 11 countries, from Australia to Taiwan. More than a third of the companies that finish in the top three are headquartered in China, while Hong Kong and India are home to nine each.

Results of the 2015 All-Asia Executive Team will be published on July 7.
