An update from Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing ( (HK:0388) ) is now available.

HKEX reported that all resolutions at its 2026 annual general meeting on 29 April were approved by poll, including the receipt of 2025 financial statements, the appointment of KPMG as auditor in place of PwC, share repurchase and issuance mandates, and revised remuneration for the chairman, non-executive directors and board committee members. The meeting also confirmed board changes, with the retirement of directors Cheah Cheng Hye, Susan Chow and Hugo Leung, the election of Miranda Kwok and Gordon Orr for roughly three-year terms, and the commencement of government-appointed director Clement Chan’s two-year term, signalling a refreshed board composition and continuity in HKEX’s governance framework.

The board noted that PwC’s retirement as auditor came without issues requiring shareholder attention, and that departing directors reported no disagreements or matters of concern tied to their exit. These outcomes, together with the broad shareholder support for all resolutions and the formalisation of new mandates, underscore stability in HKEX’s corporate governance and provide clarity for investors on its leadership and capital management approach for the coming years.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:0388) stock is a Buy with a HK$540.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing stock, see the HK:0388 Stock Forecast page.
