BEIJING (Reuters) - China's Huarong Asset Management Co Ltd said late on Thursday it would hold its first extraordinary shareholder meeting for 2021 on August 17.

In filings to the Hong Kong stock exchange, the company said said it would consider and approve at the meeting the election of Liang Qiang as an executive director.

Other resolutions to be made include the 2019 remuneration settlement plan for company's directors and supervisors, as well as the firm's 2021 budget on fixed assets.

Huarong, which counts China's finance ministry as its biggest shareholder, missed a March 31 deadline for filing its 2020 earnings, sparking a rout in its U.S. dollar-denominated bonds that spread to other issuers amid concern that a default could see foreign investors losing out.
