INVESTOR RELATIONS WEBSITES

Timeliness A challenge for many companies is not building a great IR website, but rather keeping it up to date while attending ongoing investor solicitations. This is exactly what the Timeliness category evaluates. Websites are analyzed on the frequency if their updates for all sections and the response time for a simple material solicitation are scored.

Key Criteria Adopted by IRGR: ≥≥The IR website must provide contact details, including an e-mail address and telephone number that is valid for the investor relations officer or team responsible for shareholder communication. Often enough, companies provide a switchboard number which is not helpful. ≥≥Maintain sections regularly updated.
