NORDEN receives CFA Denmark’s information diploma price
On 17 January 2008 NORDEN received the Information Diploma 2007 from CFA Danmark (Finansanalytikerforeningen).CFA Denmark describes the Information Diploma price in general as follows: “The price is an acknowledgement of a special effort within a selected part of all information to the share market. We still see more and more good examples of companies making a great effort to explain conditions, which in particular are important for specifically their company and business model.
The reason for awarding NORDEN the Information Diploma 2007 is described by CFA Denmark: Besides fine reporting in general, we find that the thorough presentation of the fleet and the segments in which NORDEN is engaged is a splendid example to follow. In this central area, NORDEN’s reporting is outstanding. This area is of course important to a shipowner, and therefore also important to analysts and investors in order for them to recognise a number of factors which are decisive for the value assessment of NORDEN’s shares.
