SGX Corporate Governance Framework

This document provides a summary of our corporate governance framework.



Policy on Appointment and Selection of Non-Executive Directors

1. The Board considers that the number of directors at any time and the composition of the Board are critical for the success of SGX. These aspects could vary from time to time depending on the circumstances of the company.

2. It is SGX's policy that the Board should have a broad range of expertise and be comprised of non-executive and executive directors.


Procedure for Selection of New Directors

1. The Board has delegated to the Nominating Committee the responsibility for identifying and recommending to the Board new Board members, after considering the necessary and desirable competencies.

2. Accordingly, in selecting potential new directors, the Nominating Committee will seek to identify the competencies required to enable the Board to fulfill its responsibilities. In so doing, the Nominating Committee will have regard to the results of the annual appraisal of the Board's performance.

3. The Nominating Committee may engage recruitment consultants to undertake research on, or assess, candidates for new positions on the Board, or to engage such other independent experts as the Committee considers necessary to carry out its duties and responsibilities.

4. Recommendations for new Board members are put to the Board for its consideration and for The Monetary Authority of Singapore's approval.

5. In accordance with the Company's Articles of Association, all new appointees to the Board, if not elected by the shareholders at AGM, will only hold office until the next AGM after the date of their appointment. However, wherever possible, new directors are put forward for election by shareholders at AGM.

6. SGX will ensure that a notice of shareholders' meeting involving the election of directors will contain sufficient information to enable shareholders to make an informed choice about who should be elected as a director.

Procedure for Re-Appointing Directors

1. At every AGM, one-third of the Board will be due for retirement. In deciding whether to recommend to the Board the re-appointment of a director, the Nominating Committee will consider the length of service of that director, the needs of the Board and the evaluation of that director's performance on the Board and the Board Committees. If the Nominating Committee decides not to recommend the re-appointment of a director, the procedure for selection of new directors commences.

2. If the Board approves the Nominating Committee's recommendation for re-appointment, the relevant directors will stand for re-election at the next AGM.
