Contingency Measures for the Pandemic
Public companies allowed to hold shareholders’ meetings with assistance of video conferencing
The Financial Supervisory Commission (“FSC”) has announced on 29 Jun 2021, that during the period from 16 August to 31 August 2021, in addition to holding physical shareholders’ meetings, public companies meeting certain conditions will be permitted to hold shareholders’ meetings with assistance of video conferencing, i.e. physical meetings that shareholders who do not attend physically may attend virtually by video conferencing.
The FSC has announced amendments to the Measures for Public Companies to Postpone Shareholders’ Meetings for Pandemic Prevention. The period for the holding of postponed shareholder meetings (from 1 July to 31 August) remains unchanged under the amendments.
