Of all the award categories, “Overall Best IR Company” is the most prestigious as the winner is selected by the judging panel among the winners of all the award categories for demonstrating all-round exemplary performance in investor relations. This year, the winners of Overall Best IR Company by company size – Large Cap and Mid Cap – are China Resources Beer (Holdings) Company Limited and Xtep International Holdings Limited.
