Investing in near term copper supply in Africa mining projects
Founded in 2016, Victory was originally focused on providing financial management and restructuring advice to businesses in emerging markets. The team’s expertise in risk management, finance and legal matters was tempered by decades of previous work in challenging economies. Deep experience in the commodities markets and developing markets enabled Victory to invest and advise co-investors in an array of distressed mining assets in North America and Africa. Our current focus is on upstream copper-centric investment strategy to identify distressed projects with a view to bridge a part of the expected shortage of critical metals production over the next 10 years.
