SINGAPORE (Mar 16): The Investor Relations Professionals Association (Singapore) (IRPAS) is urging the authorities and companies listed on the Singapore Exchange (SGX) to embrace technology amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
With the outbreak presenting a challenge for companies to hold their annual general meetings (AGMs), IRPAS is recommending an “active dialogue” on the feasibility of holding virtual AGMs while meeting governance requirements.
