How C-Suite Leaders Build the Narrative Bridge Between Price and Value

This 2-day Financial Management course is designed specifically for the C-suite leadership teams of Singapore-listed companies (ListCos). The programme addresses a critical challenge facing many listed companies: the disconnect between executive decision-making, intrinsic business value, and how capital markets ultimately price the company.

While senior executives are responsible for major strategic and financial decisions, many continue to encounter gaps in understanding how investors assess value, how market pricing behaves, and how corporate narratives influence valuation outcomes. As a result, companies may make decisions that appear financially sound in the short term but ultimately fail to create sustainable shareholder value or earn appropriate market recognition.
