STRATEGIC STUDIES
We have undertaken strategic
studies for small, medium and large producing companies and occasionally financial
institutions in the global minerals and processing business. As a back drop
to these studies, we seek to understand all relevant aspects of our client's
existing business and make industry and company projections of Capex, Opex,
production, prices, environmental considerations, political considerations,
taxes, etc.
We also either make judgments, or accept the client's views, as regards its
capabilities, financial resources, etc. Based upon this fact-gathering, which
includes understanding the client's business objectives and culture, we develop
strategic alternatives, assess each one and rank them.
We then engage in a series of discussions with our client as to each recommended
strategic alternative and dialogue with him on the strengths, weaknesses and
suitability of each. Following these discussions we prepare a report in draft
form, review it with the client, make changes as appropriate, and prepare
and submit a final report.
