Sihem Boughdiri Nemsia (Arabic: سهام بوغديري نمصية; born 1964 or 1965) is a Tunisian banker and politician. She was Minister of Finance in the Bouden Cabinet from October 2021[2][3] to 5 February 2025 when she was dismissed by President Kais Saied amid a severe financial crisis in the country.[4]
On 17 October 2023 Kaïs Saïed asked Sihem Boughdiri to assume the portfolio of interim Minister of Economy and Planning following the dismissal of Samir Saïed from this position.[5]
She refused to cover her head when she took the oath of office, breaking with tradition.[6]
