The RankingsThe IR Global Rankings (“IRGR”) is the most comprehensive ranking system for investor relations websites, online annual report, corporate governance practices and financial disclosure procedures.

The IR Global Rankings provides a unique and value-added external review of a company’s communication process with analysts and investors worldwide and all participants can choose to receive an individual feedback with the key findings. IR Global Rankings is comprised of five rankings and awards, as shown below: The first four rankings – IR Website, Online Annual Report, Financial Disclosure Procedures and Corporate Governance – are based on a technical evaluation conducted by a team of specialists from MZ and verified by an independent committee comprised of KPMG; Arnold & Porter; Barbosa, Müssnich & Aragão and Demarest & Almeida. We emphasize, however, that the evaluation on Corporate Governance is based on responses to a specific corporate governance questionnaire provided by each participating company and neither MZ nor any of our supporting entities claim responsibility for the accuracy or credibility of the answers provided. The Investors’ Choice ranking recognizes the Best Overall IR Program and is based entirely on popular votes given to the participating companies through the IR Global Rankings website (www.irglobalrankings.com) or through each participant’s IR homepage. |
