During my PhD studies in 2018, I examined the potential implications of legislative changes in Tanzania's mining laws on foreign investors and the possible financial repercussions for the Tanzanian government. This week, on July 29, 2024, those projections have come to fruition with the conclusion of the arbitration proceedings between the United Republic of Tanzania and Indiana Resources Limited, an Australian-based exploitation company. Tanzania has agreed to pay Indiana Resources USD 90 million (equivalent to Sh. 237 billion) for the unlawful expropriation of the Ntaka Hill Nickel Project, a significant nickel sulfide project in Lindi. The dispute arose from changes in Tanzania's mining laws in 2017 and 2018. On January 10, 2018, the Mineral Rights Regulations declared that all retention licenses issued before that date were cancelled and would no longer have legal effect. Although the intention behind these legislative changes was to benefit Tanzania and its citizens, it is crucial for the country to honour its commitments to foreign investors. As I proposed in my PhD research, Tanzania and other host countries should reassess their investment agreements before making significant decisions. Such a proactive approach can help mitigate conflicts and foster a more stable investment environment. #Tanzania #MiningLaws #ForeignInvestment #NickelProject #Arbitration #InvestmentLaw #PhDResearch #EconomicDevelopment #LegalReform #GlobalEconomy #SustainableInvestment #InternationalRelations #ConflictResolution #MiningIndustry #EconomicPolicy #InvestmentProtection

Over the years, Ghana’s stable economy and abundance of natural resources, especially gold, have attracted many foreign entities and or individuals to develop strategic business partnerships with local Ghanaian companies for the export of these resources. There is, therefore, the need for individuals and companies (foreigners) to undertake due diligence before undertaking to engage a local Ghanaian entity or an individual for the purchase and export of gold. #goldexport #duediligence #businessadvisory #ghana #legalstonesolicitors

State-owned enterprises (#SOEs) play a crucial role in the Kazakh economy, especially in sectors such as energy and mining. While implementation of reform efforts have stalled, there is potential for renewed momentum. What needs to be done? 1️⃣ Establish a unified ownership entity for informed state ownership 2️⃣ Ensure transparent board nomination procedures and respect for minority shareholders 3️⃣ Develop standardized disclosure requirements for SOEs' accountability 4️⃣ Clarify public service obligation requirements for a level playing field Read more in our new report 👇🏼 Talisa zur Hausen; Sara Sultan; Lazzat Borankulova; QID - Qazaq Independent Directors; SAMRUK-KAZYNA; Baiterek National Managing Holding

Excited to announce the successful completion of the OECD review on the Corporate Governance of State-Owned Enterprises in Kazakhstan. Serving as a local country consultant was both an honor and a chance to contribute to a significant project alongside talented professionals like Talisa zur Hausen, Karoline Irmscher, and Hans Christiansen. Kazakhstan has demonstrated commendable progress in economic development and reforms, outpacing many of its counterparts in Central Asia and the CIS region. State-owned enterprises (SOEs) play a crucial role in driving prosperity, participating in key sectors, and spearheading economic modernization. Noteworthy IPOs, like Air Astana's recent success on LSE, KASE, and AIX, reflect the dynamic growth. In this review, along with the rationale for state ownership, the role of SOEs in the marketplace, their disclosure, and transparency, special attention was devoted to ensuring transparent board nomination procedures and promoting respect for minority shareholders in the pursuit of robust corporate governance. Recognizing that corporate governance serves as a decisive criterion for foreign investors considering Kazakhstan as their investment destination, addressing these challenges becomes even more crucial. Despite our achievements, many challenges persist in corporate governance. Resolving these challenges will expedite reforms, ushering in a transformation towards a more commercial and business-oriented approach among SOEs. #CorporateGovernance #KazakhstanDevelopment #Reforms #MinorityShareholders #ForeignInvestment #QID
