Corporate Governance Structure
Incorporation
Hong Kong Housing Society was established in 1948 and incorporated in 1951 under the Hong Kong Housing Society Incorporation Ordinance (Cap 1059). It is an independent, not- for-profit organisation governed by its members.
The Housing Society is committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and recognises that good corporate governance is crucial for its long-term success and business sustainability in the ever changing environment. Transparency and the pursuit of best practices are the cornerstones of this commitment.
Two-tier Board Structure
The Housing Society’s Two-tier Board comprises a Supervisory Board and an Executive Committee. This corporate governance model separates the role of oversight and management of operations. In particular, the Supervisory Board determines the mission, vision, core values and guiding principles of the Housing Society; the Executive Committee sets the strategies and policies to achieve the mission and objectives; and the Management is accountable for the implementation of the strategies in the business operations.
The Nominating Committee and the Audit Committee support the Supervisory Board in the areas of membership nomination and admission; and financial reporting and internal control respectively. The Human Resources Committee (previously named as Remuneration Committee) supports the Executive Committee in the areas of overall compensation strategy and the appointment and remuneration of top management executives. Special committees and task forces may also be established by the Supervisory Board and the Executive Committee respectively as and when necessary to advise on specific business areas. Having various committees to support the key Board functions increases the Board’s efficiency, enhances its focus on high- impact issues, leverages specific skills contained within the Housing Society membership, and deepens members’ commitment.

提名委員會及審核委員會分別協助監事會處 理提名及任命委員，以及財務報告及內部監 控等事宜。人力資源委員會(前稱薪酬委員 會)則協助執行委員會處理整體薪酬策略及高 級管理人員的委任及薪酬等事宜。監事會及 執行委員會亦會按需要成立特別委員會及專 責小組就特定業務範疇提供意見。各委員會 有助提升監事會及執行委員會的效率，讓其 專注處理更重要的事務，並可充分發揮房協 各委員的專長，讓各委員得以更投入房協的 工作。
