A planned listing on the London Stock Exchange by Dangote Cement shelved some years ago, could be back on the drawing board. Parties familiar with the offer, who spoke to Bloomberg, however, declined to give further details. A representative for the company, however, denied knowledge of such plans. The company had in 2010, prepared towards listing on the London Stock Exchange, but later shelved the plans.

Dangote Industries Limited (DIL), the parent company through which Aliko Dangote maintains his stake in Dangote Cement had sold shares to several institutional investors last year, in a bid to meet the minimum float requirement of 20% on the Nigerian Stock Exchange. He, however, continues to maintain a majority stake.

Benefits from listing

A listing would enable the company raise a large amount of capital compared to the Nigerian Stock Exchange, which is fairly shallow.
