Addressing Risk and Restructuring Finance

At the CMA (UK) 4th Annual Conference on 2 December 2024 in London, Jeff Townsend invited Jamie Strauss (Digbee), Sarah Gordon (Satarla), James Whiteside (National Wealth Fund) and Simon Garnder-Bond (TechMet) to the stage for a discussion on ‘Addressing Risk and Restructuring Finance’. Despite increasingly widespread recognition of the importance of critical minerals to the energy transition, many companies developing mineral assets are struggling to access capital. Our panellists came together to ascertain what makes a project ‘investable’ from ESG, government and private finance perspectives, as well provide an overview of the market’s current challenges and opportunities. Jamie expressed concern over some of the developments of the last decade, including the exponential growth of passive funds and the steady erasure of small-cap sectors, as well as the fact that mining struggles with a reputation of execution risk that prevents new money from flowing into the sector. “The reality is this is a broken market, and state intervention is now the new norm,” said Jeff. Our speakers explored how certainty can be injected back into business opportunities, emphasising the necessity of sustainability and transparency in re-building trust and confidence, and what the role of policy is in de-risking.
