Bank of Nanjing Adds Another Shareholder Director in Push Toward 3 Trillion Asset Scale

Deep News12-09

Bank of Nanjing Co.,Ltd. held its 16th board meeting of the 10th term on December 8 at its headquarters in Hexi District, chaired by Chairman Xie Ning. The meeting approved multiple proposals, including dissolving the supervisory board, appointing auditors for 2026, and revising internal regulations.

Notably, the board nominated two new directors: Wang Houyin as executive director candidate and Wang Yao as independent director candidate. Their appointments require regulatory approval after shareholder ratification.

Wang Houyin, 51, previously worked at Huatai Securities and currently serves as Party Committee Member and Chief Accountant of Eastern Airport Group—a shareholder of Bank of Nanjing. As of Q3 2025, Eastern Airport Group Investment Co., its subsidiary, holds 288 million shares (2.33% stake) and increased holdings by 43.23 million shares (0.35%) this year.

Shareholder-driven board appointments are common for Bank of Nanjing. Major shareholders like BNP Paribas, Jiangsu Communications Holding, Nanjing Zijin Investment Group, and Nanjing High-Tech have all expanded stakes recently.

The bank’s 2025 interim report shows 29 directors/supervisors, including 11 board members—5 of whom (nearly half) represent shareholders: Yang Bohao (BNP Paribas), Chen Zheng (Nanjing Zijin), Chen Yunjiang (Jiangsu Communications), Xu Yimin (Nanjing High-Tech), and Liao Dingjin (Happy Life Insurance). Chen Yunjiang joined only in May.

With Wang Houyin’s addition, shareholder directors now number six, potentially reshaping board dynamics. Meanwhile, three shareholder supervisors—Wang Guobin (China Tobacco Jiangsu), Huang Tao (Zijin Trust), and Zhang Lvlin (Nanjing Gas)—face reassignment as the bank phases out its supervisory board.

Amid its drive toward 3 trillion yuan in assets, Bank of Nanjing is prioritizing capital operations and shareholder stability to ensure operational continuity.
