Geotech reshapes board with new independent director to meet gender diversity rules

The latest update is out from Geotech Holdings Ltd. ( (HK:1707) ).

Geotech Holdings Ltd. announced that independent non-executive director Shen Zejing will resign from the board and step down from the audit, remuneration, and nomination committees on 22 May 2026, citing other business commitments, with the company emphasizing there is no disagreement or issue requiring shareholder attention. The resignation triggers changes in board committee composition and forms part of the company’s efforts to align its governance structure with Hong Kong listing and gender diversity requirements.

The board has appointed investment professional Chiam Yun Li as an independent non-executive director, effective 22 May 2026, on a one-year renewable term with a monthly director’s fee of HK$20,000, and she will be subject to the usual rotation and re-election rules. Her appointment, adding a female independent director with experience in investment advisory and overseas property investment, supports the company’s compliance with board gender diversity rules and may strengthen governance and investor confidence despite her familial tie to the company secretary, which the firm states does not affect independence under listing rules.
