Aluminium Bahrain (Alba), one of the world’s largest aluminium smelters, announced receiving awards for Leading Corporate for Investor Relations (IR) in Bahrain and Best Investor Relations Professional – Bahrain.

The awards were announced at the 2022 Middle East Investor Relations Association (MEIRA) Hybrid Annual Conference and held on 24 October 2022 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Alba’s Chief Executive Officer Ali Al Baqali said: “Markets fluctuate all the time, but we want our investors-base to stay the course with Alba -- this can only be done through a very strong Investor Relations team.”

“To be recognised for the 11th year in a row is a vote of confidence in our IR practices and I thank for that our Director of Investor Relations, Insurance and Corporate Secretary Eline Hilal, and her team for setting the benchmark in IR, corporate governance, and seamless communication with investors and the financial community.”

Adding further, Alba’s Director of Investor Relations Eline Hilal said: “We are humbled to be selected again by our wider investor-base, local and international, for these IR awards. Our efforts have paid well as we want our investors to not only know what they own but rather why they should own Alba stock.”

The MEIRA Awards is the largest Investor Relations event in MENA, which recognises the efforts of regionally listed companies and IR professionals for their critical role in shaping the IR landscape.
