CapitaLand’s Investor Relations and Corporate Communications departments work together to proactively keep all stakeholders informed and updated. In keeping with good corporate governance and disclosure best practice standards, we communicate regularly with shareholders, investors, analysts, fund managers and the media.

The Investor Relations department engages both local and foreign investment professionals through face-to-face meetings, teleconferences, conferences and road shows. In 2007 alone, we met with over 680 global investors and participated in 17 conferences and roadshows in Shanghai, Beijing, Hong Kong, London, Abu Dhabi, New York and Singapore. Site visits were also conducted to provide institutional investors a better understanding of our diverse geographical presence. We also communicated regularly with existing and potential investors.

The Corporate Communications department strives to strengthen the Group’s reputation, raise public understanding of the business, and maintain media relations as part of the Group’s reputation management.

This involves arranging top management to meet up with key media in countries where we have significant presence, generating regional and international media coverage, and maintaining good media relations.

We invited various Singapore media to visit Bahrain Bay, Macao Studio City and Vietnam’s Ho Chi Minh City where CapitaLand launched its high-end condominium project called The Vista; they were also present at the official openings of the CapitaRetail-SZITIC Jin Niu Mall in Chengdu and Xizhimen Mall in Beijing.

We visited various media in Japan to strengthen ties and in turn invited them to Singapore and China to improve rapport and give them a better understanding of CapitaLand.

In 2007, we continued our efforts to ensure an open and timely information flow. Besides posting all news and announcements on our corporate website at www.capitaland.com, we also uploaded all announcements and news on the Singapore Exchange website. We will revamp our corporate website to match our online look and feel with our reputation and branding as Southeast Asia’s biggest real estate developer.

Going forward, Investor Relations and Corporate Communications will continually enhance the two-way communication between investors, the media, and CapitaLand. We will also ensure that all stakeholders are kept informed in a timely and consistent basis.
