Voluntary conversion of Okey group ADRs
We can now confirm that it is possible to successfully convert Okey group ADRs bought on the AIX into the underlying ordinary shares via voluntary conversion.

In our test run the process took various months to complete, but new cases may be quicker now that the process has been tested. Pleas...
