MTN Group Limited (MTN)
has appointed Computershare Investor Services (Pty) Limited (Computershare) as
the authorized service provider to manage the process of locating shareholders
with unclaimed dividends.
The objective according
to the Group, is to update and verify shareholder information to facilitate the
disbursement of any outstanding dividends.
Since the commencement of this initiative, a substantial
number of shareholders have updated their records, leading to the successful
distribution of over R17 million in dividends. In collaboration with
Computershare, MTN continues to exercise due diligence in tracing shareholders
to ensure the timely payment of unclaimed dividends.
Computershare has been entrusted with the task of
identifying these shareholders, obtaining the necessary documents to verify and
update their information, and facilitating the payment of any outstanding
dividends owed to them.
MTN reiterated its dedication to reaching its
shareholders and ensuring they receive their dividends. “If you are a
shareholder who has not yet claimed your dividends or know someone who owns MTN
shares and has not received their dividends, we urge you to act.”
