Melbourne, VIC, -- Spooked by the financial crisis, today’s investors have never been hungrier for information. A survey found that resource companies listed on Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) receives on average 50-100 investor enquiries per exploration campaign. Tightening of credit markets and market volatility mean that maintaining open communication channels with shareholders has never been more important to help communicate the company’s value to the market.
There is now a more effective way of reaching company investor relations. DearCEO, a Melbourne-based startup, is a powerful online communication tool that empowers shareholders and companies. Acting as a proxy for all its members, DearCEO provides a live repository of Questions and Answers (Q&A) between listed entities and investors. Its unique platform is one of the most advanced market disclosure mechanisms that gives all investors equal access to top level company management.
“Instead of the usual scripted interview, DearCEO provides a candid, investor-powered interview where we give investors the interviewer’
Also a keen investor and a Warren Buffett disciple, Tan believes “Investors often forget that as shareholders we own the business. As such, it is important to get answers to questions you may have about the business”. DearCEO solves all the communication needs in a highly regulated area by utilising the Internet. Added Tan, “For the first time, CEOs can now reach grass root investors with the click of a button from anywhere”. DearCEO aims to expand its free service to US and UK investors next.
