President Mamadi Doumbouya has ordered more than 60 public, private and mixed companies in Guinea to pay their 2025 dividends by June 30, 2026, warning of strict sanctions for non-compliance.
According to the presidency, private firms risk losing their operating licenses, while managers of public companies could face immediate dismissal and legal action.
An inter-ministerial task force—including the Ministry of Economy and Finance, the Ministry of Mines, and SOGUIPAMI—has been set up to enforce the directive, which targets major mining and state-linked firms.
The move, government officials say, aims to boost domestic revenue mobilization and ensure stronger contributions from companies to the national budget.
