CCG Investor Relations Announces China Best Ideas Investment Conference, September 10th at Beijing Four Seasons

NEW YORK, May 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- CCG Investor Relations ("CCG"), a leading US-headquartered global investor relations and strategic communications consultancy, today announced the 2013 China Best Ideas Investment Conference to be co-hosted by Marcum Bernstein & Pinchuk, a top-ranking U.S accounting and consulting firm with a substantial China practice, on September 10, 2013, Beijing, China.

Within an improving macro-economic outlook and new government leadership in place, investors are taking a fresh look at investing in China. However, investors remain highly selective with a focus on companies with strong corporate governance and accounting practices, transparent business models, and a track record of being responsive to shareholder concerns.

The 2013 China Best Ideas Investment Conference will provide investors with the opportunity to meet with the senior management of Chinese companies that have been carefully selected for having strong business models, meeting international standards of corporate governance, and being transparent with investors. With a selection of 20 small- to large-cap companies in sectors including consumer, healthcare, technology and specialty industrial, this one-day event can serve as a great introduction to the opportunities to participate in China's growth.

The program will include expert panels with some of the leading experts on the Chinese economy, accounting, forensic and investigatory research, and corporate governance, including:

• China Macro: Rebalancing, Hard Landing or Meltdown
  Patrick Chovanec, chief strategist, Silvercrest Asset Management
  Fraser Howie, author, Red Capitalism: The Fragile Foundation of China's Extraordinary Rise
  Michael Pettis, author, The Great Rebalancing: Trade, Conflict, and the Perilous Road Ahead for the World Economy
  
• China Due Diligence Best Practices Workshop
  Jon Carnes, aka alfredlittle.com
  Dan David, GeoInvesting
  
• Governance 2.0: What Have We Learned?
  Paul Gillis, co-director IMBA program at Peking University's Guanghua School of Management and publisher of China Accounting Blog
  
•  Private vs. Public: Changing Financing Landscape for Chinese Corporates
  Speakers TBA
  
• Who Will Win? The Next Generation of China MNCs
  Dialogue between Shaun Rein, author of The End of Cheap China, and leading Chinese CEO TBA

"Despite China's continued strong economic growth, investing in Chinese companies has been a disappointment for most investors, as illustrated by the significant underperformance by every major index tracking Chinese equities," said Mr. Crocker Coulson, President of CCG Investor Relations. "Since January of 2009, the Hang Seng China Enterprises Index has risen by 54% and the Shanghai stock index has risen by 17.3%, as compared to the 73.2% rally for the S&P 500 and 107% for the NASDAQ. Since its peak in early 2011, the ChinNext stock market, or "China's NASDAQ," has lost over 40% of its value. The broadest measure of U.S.-listed Chinese stocks, the USX Halter China Index, has ceased to exist."

"The China Best Ideas Investment Conference will seek to provide investors with an introduction to some of the higher quality names that are accessible to foreign investors. At the same time we hope to initiate a dialogue among investors, management, economists, and accounting and governance experts as to what has gone wrong in the China equity market and what can be done to fix it. We are very excited about the caliber of speakers who have accepted to join the dialogue and believe this event will be of great value to anyone who is interested in the subject of China's evolving economy and its capital markets."

Companies that are interested in presenting at this investment conference or who wish to be a sponsor can contact Crocker Coulson, president of CCG Investor Relations, at 646-213-1915 or [email protected].

The event is free to attend for invited company management and for qualified institutional investors.
