About

Jackson Foo Hei Yee, company secretary and chief legal and compliance officer, leads the legal team at Shanghai Industrial Holdings (SIHL), a Forbes 2000 listed investment company based in Hong Kong. At the end of 2017, the company’s total assets reached HK$171.3bn and profits attributable to shareholders were HK$3.15bn. SIHL’s largest shareholder and controlling stakeholder is the municipality of Shanghai – its largest overseas conglomerate and one of the largest “red chip” stocks traded on the Hong Kong exchange. Yee joined the company in 2010 and has led the legal function through some major expansions, particularly its investment into infrastructure facilities, real estate and consumer products. The legal team most recently succeeded in preparing the application for listing one of its subsidiaries, SIIC Environment, on the Hong Kong Stock exchange, realising its ambition of being listed on both the Singapore and Hong Kong exchanges.
