An investor with an interest in a high return, high risk mining asset needed support to help shape investment strategy and decision making. The operating environment was characterised by a high level of political instability. The project focused on understanding the inside workings of various state and private stakeholders with capacity directly and indirectly to determine the success of the project.
Given the complexity of the asset and the operating environment, our in-country team worked with a network capable of tapping into government, state institution, the judiciary, diplomatic community, private sector, security and military. We conducted discreet interviews; we would cross-reference information sourced in different networks. We looked at shifting power dynamics in government and the entire state apparatus that would have a direct effect to the specific deal in question. Making use of expertise built over years working in the country, we were able to provide our client with a mix of weekly reports and in-person advisory, giving them the instruments to adjust and optimise their strategy in a very unstable environment.
Our work gave our client a unique edge on competitors and capacity to understand and manage a high risk situation, putting the client in position to deliver the most favourable outcome.
