Ganfeng Lithium Nominates New Independent Director to Bolster Board Governance

An update from Ganfeng Lithium Co ( (HK:1772) ) is now available.

Ganfeng Lithium Group has proposed the appointment of legal scholar Liu Chongliang as an independent non-executive director, to take office following shareholder approval at the next general meeting and the retirement of current independent director Xu Guanghua. Liu, a professor of law at Shanghai University of Political Science and Law with extensive legislative and academic experience, has been confirmed by the board as meeting Hong Kong listing independence requirements, with an annual director’s remuneration set at RMB120,000.

By bringing in a director with deep experience in legislative and judicial practice but no prior ties to the group or its major shareholders, Ganfeng signals an emphasis on regulatory compliance, board independence, and robust corporate governance as it navigates the evolving regulatory and market environment for lithium and new-energy companies.
