Oman: The Capital Market Authority (CMA) has replaced the board of directors of Raysut Cement and appointed a temporary one following a financial audit. The CMA said the new board would, “deal with the reasons that led the company to conditions that prompted such action.” It will restructure the company to ensure the stability of its financial position. In late November 2022 the CMA questioned the validity of the company’s third quarter results in 2022 when it detected ‘material misrepresentation.’ Additionally, the cement producer’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer resigned in August 2022 and November 2022 respectively.
The new board is headed by Hamdan Ahmed Al Shaqsi. It also includes Majid Sultan Al Tauqi, Dr. Ali Amer Al Ghaithi, Ahmed Saud Al Zakwani and Mubeen Jalil Yasin Khan. The new board members will each hold their posts for three years.
