An alternative investment firm seeking to invest in a Central American copper mine engaged Veracity to analyze the political, regulatory, and environmental risks ahead of an impending review of mining regulations and an environmental compliance audit.
Action
Veracity determined that regulatory uncertainties were short-term and continuity would prevail under the president at that time. Additionally, risks from other stakeholders and the operator would not be material to the client’s interest.
Results
With the benefit of Veracity’s findings, the client proceeded with the investment and helped to establish a thriving operation.
