Align Partners Issues Public Shareholder Letter and Submits Formal Shareholder Proposals to DB Insurance9.2.2026 16:26:00 EET | Press release
Align Partners Capital Management Inc. (“Align Partners”), a shareholder of DB Insurance Co., Ltd. (KRX:005830) (“DBI” or the “Company”) holding 1.9%, has issued a public shareholder letter to DBI’s Board of Directors aimed at strengthening capital allocation policy and governance oversight, and submitted formal shareholder proposals for the 2026 Annual General Meeting (“AGM”).

This is exacerbated by a passive payout policy and
