Board of Directors
Board of Directors
On May 21, 2025, Sinyi Realty undertook an election all seven seats of the Board, three of which are ordinary directors and four of which are Independent Directors. In addition to the various directors having their own particular specialties, over half of the Board being Independent Directors further ensures that proceedings are objective and independent.
Functional committees including the Audit Committee and the Remuneration Committee take on decision-making responsibility for economic, environmental, and social impact issues. Major issues, prior to being reported to the Board, also undergo prior review and checking. The Nomination Committee was established in 2017, with the professional qualifications and other criteria nominees for independent directorships are required to meet, ensuring that Board candidates will be appropriate fits for the industry and for the company’s future developmental needs, while also strengthening the quality of the resolutions made by the Board of Directors. Furthermore, in 2023, Sinyi introduced the "Business Ethics and Sustainable Development Committee" to prioritize stakeholder interests, reinforce sustainability initiatives.

Board of Directors CharterDirector Training
We organize courses on economic, environmental, and social issues relevant to our operations to boost our Directors’ professional capabilities. We have also joined the Taiwan Corporate Governance Association’s Association of Directors and Supervisors, using the TCGA’s publications and courses to gather relevant knowledge. The company also issues regular announcements to Independent Directors on revenues and other industry information. It also provides as occasional notices on economic, environmental, and social issues pertaining to the company to help ensure that our Independent Directors are up-to-date. Self-evaluations of Independent Directors are gathered annually to reinforce the content of the company’s reports. To train the company’s Directors, Independent Directors are first asked to indicate how we can work with them in line with the annual strategy development and strategy-related courses.
The Board of Directors TrainingNomination and Selection of Directors
To ensure the robust functioning of the Company’s Board of Directors and reinforce management mechanisms, Sinyi Realty’s Board approved the establishment of a Nominating Committee and set out the Nomination Committee Organization Rules. The Guidelines for Board Elections and the Guidelines for the Evaluation and Vetting of Nominees for Independent Directorships clearly layout the professional qualifications and other criteria nominees for independent directorships are required to meet, including diversity, independence, and knowledge & experience in ESG issues. In this way, we are able to ensure that Board candidates will be appropriate fits for the industry and for the company’s future developmental needs.
The diversity and independence of the Board, please refer to Sinyi Realty 2025 Annual Report p2-5.Independent Directors
Sinyi Realty has independent directors accounting for over half of the Board—a level rarely seen in the industry—with smooth collaboration across all functional committees. A female independent director was first appointed in 2019, and another was added in 2025, bringing the total to two. This further enhances the diversity and professional composition of the Board and improves the quality of decision-making.
Independent Directors work together to lead the company's development through the following measures:
- For important board meeting proposals, we arranged communication with Independent Directors in advance.
- Arrange Independent Directors to communicate with accountants and audit units individually.
- Director Guidance Meeting: Integrate the needs of business units, invite independent directors for guidance, and increase the degree of Independent Directors’ participation in company operations.
