Shareholders

The Board and senior management of Tencent recognize their responsibility to represent the interests of the shareholders and to enhance shareholder value. Tencent uses a number of formal channels to account to shareholders for the performance and operation of the Group and reports to shareholders on a quarterly basis. The Company Secretarial Department/Investor Relations Department respond to letters, e-mails and telephone enquiries from shareholders/investors on various issues.

The directors of Tencent have adopted the Shareholders Communication Policy in March 2012 which aims to ensure that the shareholders of the Company and other stakeholders at large are provided with ready, equal, regular and timely access to material information about the Company, in order to maintain an on-going dialogue with the shareholders of the Company and to enable them to exercise their rights in an informed manner, and to allow the shareholders of the Company and other stakeholders to engage actively with Tencent through general meetings or other proper means.

Board of Directors

Tencent has a unitary Board. The non-executive directors of the Company bring a wide range of business and financial experience to the Board. Independent non-executive directors of the Company represent more than one-third of the Board, providing sufficient checks and balances that safeguard the interests of the shareholders and the Group. The Company receives from each independent non-executive director a confirmation annually of his independence and the Nomination Committee conducts annual reviews to assess the independence of all independent non-executive directors.
