MALI: SPOTLIGHT ON CONTRACT AND SECURITY RISKS TO THE MINING SECTOR

   Tue, 10 November 2020

A recent announcement by the post-coup transitional government of contract reviews in the mining sector is aimed at meeting trade union and activist demands for fairer income distribution. Foreign mining companies are unlikely to be targeted, although punitive measures for violations of regulations are more likely to be stringently applied. Security risks remain the primary threat to Mali’s mining sector, which is at the forefront of rebuilding the country’s battered economy.
