Deadline on the 23rd
One Recommendation Per Shareholder with Voting Rights
On January 15, iM Financial Group announced that it will be accepting recommendations for preliminary outside director candidates from shareholders with voting rights, in order to secure a pool of highly qualified outside director candidates and enhance shareholder value.
Since the introduction of the shareholder recommendation system for outside directors in 2018, the company has annually accepted recommendations for preliminary outside director candidates from shareholders. As of January 14, the business day prior to the announcement date, individual shareholders (excluding corporate shareholders) who hold at least one share with voting rights may each recommend one preliminary outside director candidate.
Preliminary outside director candidates must possess expertise in fields such as finance, economics, business management, accounting/finance, law, information technology (IT)/digital, human resources (HR), risk management, environment·social·governance (ESG), or financial consumer protection. In addition, they must not be subject to any disqualifications as stipulated by the Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies or other relevant laws.
Recommended preliminary candidates will undergo internal procedures, including evaluation by an external selection advisory committee, in February this year. They will then be included in and managed as part of the iM Financial Group’s integrated pool of outside director candidates. Each affiliate of iM Financial Group will select outside director candidates from this integrated pool and appoint new outside directors at their respective general shareholders’ meetings in March.
