Building stakeholder confidence at the AGM
Leverage the annual general meeting to communicate on creating long-term value and demonstrating resilience in tackling risks
IT’S the season again – not for festivities, but for annual general meetings (AGMs), where companies meet and communicate with shareholders.

The past year was fraught with concerns over global geopolitical risks and higher-for-longer interest and inflation rates, in addition to rapid digitalisation and growing emphasis on sustainability.

A clear and meaningful discourse on the following topics at the AGM can help inspire confidence and deepen trust with stakeholders.
