Vietnam Export Import Commercial Joint Stock Bank (Eximbank, HoSE: EIB) has just announced the resolution of the Board of Directors on organizing an extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders (GMS) to elect additional members of the Board of Directors for the 7th term (2020-2025) and other contents under the authority of the GMS.
The meeting is scheduled to be held on September 18, 2023 in Ho Chi Minh City. The last registration date for shareholders to exercise their rights to attend and vote at the General Meeting of Shareholders is July 19.
According to the draft proposal announced by Eximbank, the extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders will elect up to 2 additional members of the Board of Directors for the 7th term (2020-2025) to ensure the number of members in accordance with the bank's charter, the Resolution of the 2021 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and current laws as well as meet the current management and assignment needs of the Board of Directors.
It is expected that on August 2, 2023, Eximbank will submit documents to the State Bank for consideration and approval of the proposed list of additional personnel to the Board of Directors of Eximbank for the 7th term (2020-2025) to conduct the election at the General Meeting of Shareholders.
The list of candidates nominated for the Board of Directors has not been announced by Eximbank.
Currently, Eximbank's Board of Directors has 5 members, including Chairwoman Do Ha Phuong, Ms. Luong Thi Cam Tu, Ms. Le Thi Mai Loan, Mr. Pham Quang Dung and Mr. Tran Anh Thang.
Previously, at the 2023 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, Eximbank shareholders approved the dismissal of Mr. Nguyen Hieu and Mr. Nguyen Thanh Hung from the positions of members of the Board of Directors, reducing the number of members from 7 to 5.
The decision to convene an extraordinary shareholders' meeting was made after the Board of Directors of Eximbank dismissed Ms. Luong Thi Cam Tu from the position of Chairwoman of the Board of Directors from June 28, 2023 and elected Ms. Do Ha Phuong to hold this position for the 7th term (2020 - 2025).
New Chairman of Eximbank Board of Directors Do Ha Phuong.
Ms. Do Ha Phuong was elected to the Board of Directors of Eximbank in February 2022, at the bank's 2nd Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in 2021. Ms. Phuong was nominated by 7 individuals and 4 organizations including: Rong Ngoc Joint Stock Company, Hoang Gia Da Lat Joint Stock Company, Hoan Vu Saigon Joint Stock Company, M8 Company Limited.
Eximbank is a bank that has undergone many high-level personnel changes after a series of major shareholders withdrew capital from the bank since October 2022. Therefore, Eximbank is the only joint stock bank to date that has been unable to hold its annual general meeting of shareholders for 2-3 consecutive years.
By the beginning of this year, the bank had basically completed the structure of the Board of Directors at the 2nd Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders. And in April, Eximbank also successfully held the 2023 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.
Regarding the business plan, in 2023, Eximbank sets a target of total assets reaching VND 210,000 billion, an increase of 13.5%; pre-tax profit reaching VND 5,000 billion, an increase of 35% compared to 2022 .
