Insights

Corporate governance analyst

Origin Investment combines CEO and interim CFO roles after a planned-sounding finance leadership change.

Origin Investment Corp I disclosed that Nicolas Kuan Liang Lin resigned as Chief Financial Officer and director effective September 29, 2025. The company explicitly notes that his resignation was not due to any disagreement on operations, policies, or practices, which typically aims to reassure stakeholders that no underlying dispute triggered the change.

CEO Yung-Hsi (“Edward”) Chang will act as Interim CFO until a replacement is identified. Temporarily combining the CEO and CFO positions centralizes decision-making and may streamline coordination, but it also means fewer checks and balances at the top of the organization while the search is underway.

Investors may pay attention to future disclosures identifying a permanent CFO and whether that person also joins the board, as that will indicate how the company chooses to structure financial oversight and governance after this transition.
