AMTD International Inc. Announced the Proposed Secondary Listing on the Singapore Stock Exchange

HONG KONG–(BUSINESS WIRE)–AMTD International Inc. (“AMTD” or “the Company”) (NYSE: HKIB), a subsidiary of AMTD Group Company Limited (“AMTD Group”), a leading comprehensive financial services conglomerate, today announced the proposed secondary listing by way of introduction of 23,873,655 class A ordinary shares of the Company on the Main Board of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (the “SGX-ST”) under the stock code “HKB”, being class A ordinary shares that have been registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission as part of the Company’s initial public offering and listing on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the stock code “HKIB” in August 2019, and which were previously represented by the American depositary shares (“ADSs”, each representing one class A ordinary share of the Company) listed for trading on the NYSE.

The Company’s ADSs will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE. AMTD is the first company to be dual listed on both the NYSE and the SGX-ST.

“Listing on the SGX-ST marks another milestone of AMTD and AMTD Group. AMTD, being the No. 1 independent investment bank in Asia, sees enormous opportunities in the ASEAN region with Singapore as its hub and regional headquarters. AMTD is committed to embracing Southeast Asia capital markets in particular by listing on the SGX-ST to connect more capable companies with global investors through Singapore and other Southeast Asian markets. We will leverage on Singapore’s dynamic capital market, energetic new economy sectors and diverse talent pool to create more connectivity between Singapore, Southeast Asia, the Greater Bay Area and the rest of China. Most importantly, we are committed to bringing into Singapore our SpiderNet ecosystem, expertise in capital markets and the new economy sector to empower local entrepreneurs, support their innovations and developments and bring their equities or bonds to ultimately list on recognized exchanges.” said Calvin Choi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of AMTD.

The Company believes that the proposed secondary listing on the SGX-ST will allow more of the Company’s clients and stakeholders in the AMTD SpiderNet ecosystem to participate in and benefit from AMTD’s growth, and enable the Company and its ecosystem partners to tap into new capital resources in Singapore.

The Company has received a letter of eligibility from the SGX-ST for the listing and quotation of the 23,873,655 class A ordinary shares on the SGX-ST on March 31, 2020.
