Nigeria plans clampdown on shell companies

The Nigeria Financial Intelligence Unit, NFIU, has announced an upcoming crackdown on ghost businesses across the country, amidst concerns about lax regulation of companies’ financial dealings.

“If anyone establishes a company, it has to be a company indeed and we have to be firm on this,” Mr Tukur said. “So, we have to step up regulation to avoid fraudulent transactions.” The financial intelligence chief said companies without physical addresses are shell companies, and they are usually registered and operated to shield the identity of their beneficial owners.

Mr Tukur said the policy was being aggressively pursued ahead of a single-currency initiative of ECOWAS states.
