Mobile operator Tigo has indicated it has no immediate plans of listing on Ghana Stock Exchange.
There are currently proposals for foreign firms operating in the country, especially the TELCOS, to offload part of their interest to Ghanaians through the Exchange. This, the proponents argue, will allow indigenes to share in the profits of such firms.
Speaking to JOYBUSINESS at the launch of its new internet packages, Acting General Manager of Tigo, Obafemi Banigbe however said the company might consider listing in the future.
“We are listed on the New York Stock and the Stockholm Stock Exchange in Sweden”, in the Ghana Stock Exchange I am not aware of any plan of that sought to list”
“But in the near future there might be an opportunity to list on the local bourse”
Tigo thus becomes the second mobile operator after MTN to indicate its intention not to list on the local bourse.
JOYBUSINESS has however learnt another mobile operator is working to possibly list on the Ghana Stock Exchange soon.
