As part of our communication strategy, we also arrange stakeholder engagements. We regularly meet with foreign and domestic asset managers and investors. Our outreach programme includes different groups from the broader society. These include trade unions, business associations and political parties. We also have an economic round-table discussion with economic analysts every alternate month, and we engage regularly with the academic community.
