About Everbright

China Everbright Limited ("CEL", stock code: 165. HK) was established in Hong Kong in 1997. As a member of China Everbright Group, CEL is China's leading cross-border investment and asset management company. It manages private equity funds, venture capital funds, sector focus funds, mezzanine funds, fund of funds, fixed income and equity funds. CEL utilises its strong capital strength and cultivates a number of high-growth-potential enterprises together with its investors. While closely following the development requirements of Chinese enterprises, it also seamlessly merges the best in overseas technologies with the Chinese market, providing diversified financial services for its Chinese clients involved in overseas investment. As at the end of June 2017, CEL managed 38 funds with fundraising scale of HKD 106.6 billion. Through both fund management and principal investment businesses, CEL has invested in companies both in China and globally, including China UMS, GDS, Goldwind, CECEP Wind-power Corporation, Nanjing Gaosu Chuandong, HC SemiTek, Beijing Genomics Institute, Betta Pharmaceuticals, Beingmate, Focus Media, iQiYi, Miaopai, Albania Capital Airport, Wish and BEP. It has invested in a total of over 300 companies, covering fields including real estate, pharmaceuticals, new energy, infrastructure, advanced technology, high level manufacturing, financial technology and cultural consumption. Of these, more than 150 companies have been listed in China and overseas, or were listed but have withdrawn due to mergers and acquisitions. CEL is the second-largest shareholder of Everbright Securities (stock code: 601788. SH, 6178. HK) and a strategic shareholder of China Everbright Bank (stock code: 601818. SH, 6818. HK). It is also the largest shareholder of Shanghai Jiabao Industry & Commerce (Group) Co., Ltd (stock code: 600622. SH). On the Hong Kong listing, it is the largest shareholder of China Aircraft Leasing Group Holdings Limited (stock code: 1848. HK). On Singapore listing, it is the second largest shareholder of Ying Li International Real Estate Limited (stock code: 5DM. SGX). CEL and its subsidiary companies currently have offices in Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Tianjin, Singapore and Dublin. CEL became one of the first Hong Kong stocks to be traded following the launches of the Shanghai-Hong Kong and Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect programmes in April 2014 and December 2016. CEL adheres to the motto "The Power to Transform". With a firm footing in Hong Kong - a true bridge between East and West - the Group is well-positioned to take advantage of the long-term opportunities presented by changes in the Chinese market, respond flexibly, and become a leader in Chinese cross-border investment and asset management.
