AMTD IDEA GROUP

In 2015, our Controlling Shareholder commenced capital market solutions, and strategic investment businesses. From February to April 2019, through restructuring, both the capital market solutions, and strategic investment businesses were carved out from our Controlling Shareholder and injected into the Company. As part of the restructuring, in February 2019, AMTD International Inc. was incorporated as an exempted company with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands initially as a wholly-owned subsidiary of our Controlling Shareholder. In April 2019, the abovementioned restructuring was completed, and AMTD International Inc. became the holding company of our businesses. In March 2022, with the approval of our shareholders, we changed our company name from AMTD International Inc. to AMTD IDEA Group. We are a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and conduct our businesses through our subsidiaries in Europe, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Asia. See Item 4.C.
