Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Limited (ICBC) issued a shareholder reminder dated 13 May 2026 outlining its transition to electronic dissemination of corporate communications in line with Rule 2.07A of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange Listing Rules, which support the exchange’s paperless listing regime that took effect on 31 December 2023.

Under the new arrangement, ICBC will publish all future corporate communications—such as annual and interim reports, notices of meeting, circulars and proxy forms—in both English and Chinese on the bank’s website (www.icbc-ltd.com) and on HKEXnews (www.hkexnews.hk). Printed versions will be distributed only for “Actionable Corporate Communications,” defined as documents requiring shareholders to exercise rights or make elections, for example, dividend choices or rights-issue applications.

ICBC urges shareholders who have not yet supplied an email address to do so by scanning the personalised QR code on the reply form or by returning the completed form to its H-share registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong. Until a functional email is provided, the bank will continue to send actionable documents in hard copy.

Shareholders preferring printed copies of all future corporate communications may request them via the reply form or by emailing icbc.ecom@computershare.com.hk with their name and mailing address. Such requests remain valid for one year unless amended or withdrawn earlier.

For enquiries, shareholders can contact Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services on +852 2862 8688 during business hours, Monday to Friday (Hong Kong time).
