MTN Applies to Nigerian Regulator for Share Listing

MTN Group Ltd. asked the Nigerian Securities & Exchange Commission for permission to proceed with a listing of its shares, according to two people familiar with the matter.

The listing in Africa’s most populous nation is a condition of the settlement of a $1 billion regulatory fine three years ago.
