Daishin Economic Research Institute to Host 'Governance Insight Forum'

Review of This Year's Regular Shareholders' Meetings
and Strategies for Responding to Amendments to the Commercial Act

Daishin Economic Research Institute announced on May 14 that it will host the 'Governance Insight Forum' on the 5th floor of the Daishin Finance Center in Jung-gu, Seoul, on May 20.

The 'Governance Insight Forum' has been organized to provide insights to listed companies and stakeholders, as the importance of governance (corporate structure) has become increasingly highlighted in the pursuit of sustainable growth and trust-based management.

Daishin Economic Research Institute plans to hold the forum on a regular basis to shed light on major governance issues in depth and to support companies in their strategic responses.

This forum will focus on two main topics: a review of the 2025 regular general shareholders' meetings, and an examination of key issues in the proposed amendments to the Commercial Act. In particular, it will focus on exploring proactive and practical response strategies to address the increasingly sophisticated demands of various stakeholders at recent shareholders' meetings, the expansion of directors' duty of loyalty, and institutional changes such as the introduction of electronic general shareholders' meetings resulting from the amendments to the Commercial Act.

The Governance Forum primarily targets employees and executives in IR, legal, and strategic planning departments of listed companies.

An Sanghee, Head of the Governance Consulting Center at Daishin Economic Research Institute, stated, "The purpose of this forum is to enhance the practical understanding of governance among corporate professionals," adding, "Participants will be able to gain comprehensive insights necessary for devising effective response strategies."
