[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] Samkwang Glass announced on the 18th that it has carried out a restructuring of its governance structure by merging its investment division, the investment division of its subsidiary I-Tech Construction, and Gunjang Energy into a single merged corporation that will become the group's business holding company.


The three companies resolved this matter at their board meetings on the same day and plan to hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders on May 14 to finalize the division and merger by division.


Samkwang Glass will spin off its business division into a 100% subsidiary through a physical division, and the remaining investment division will absorb and merge Gunjang Energy.


The investment division, which was spun off from I-Tech Construction through a human division, will merge with Samkwang Glass. The I-Tech Construction investment division has managed subsidiaries' equity such as Gunjang Energy, SMG Energy, and SG Development.


Samkwang Glass explained that through this restructuring, the existing serial governance structure from Samkwang Glass to I-Tech Construction and Gunjang Energy will change into a parallel governance structure centered on the holding company.



A Samkwang Glass official said, "By unifying the investment divisions into the merged corporation, we can allocate capital efficiently and integrate resources that were dispersed across companies to secure competitiveness."
