the president, chairman, and chief executive officer
TSMC’s current official disclosures identify C.C. Wei as Chairman and CEO, not President. “President and Co-CEO” is listed only as one of his past roles from 2013 to 2018.
Full reasoning
TSMC’s own current executive biography says “Dr. C. C. Wei is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer” and separately lists “President and Co-CEO” as a prior position held from November 2013 to June 2018. TSMC’s 2025 Form 20-F likewise lists his current position with the company as “Chairman; Chief Executive Officer.”
Because the company’s current filings and executive page do not list him as President, the article’s present-tense description of Wei as “the president, chairman, and chief executive officer” is outdated/inaccurate.

Charter Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.
The company name is wrong. TSMC’s official materials identify Wei’s former employer as Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing Ltd., not “Charter Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.”
Full reasoning
TSMC’s official 1998 announcement appointing Che-Chia Wei as vice president states that he came to TSMC from “Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing Ltd.” TSMC’s current executive biography also says he served as Senior Vice President of Technology at Chartered Semiconductor before joining TSMC.
That directly contradicts the article’s wording “Charter Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.” The company’s name was Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing Ltd.

President, CEO, and chairman of TSMC
TSMC’s current official disclosures list C.C. Wei as Chairman and CEO, not President. “President” is a past title from 2013 to 2018.
Full reasoning
The infobox title is outdated. TSMC’s official executive page currently identifies C.C. Wei as “Chairman and Chief Executive Officer” and says he was “President and Co-CEO from November 2013 to June 2018.” TSMC’s 2025 Form 20-F also lists his current position as “Chairman; Chief Executive Officer.”
So the article’s present-tense infobox entry “President, CEO, and chairman of TSMC” is inaccurate because President is no longer one of his current titles.
