Concern over access to capital against the urgent need for trillion-dollar investment to meet metal demands for the energy transition emerged as a critical industry concern in the latest findings from EY’s 18th annual study on mining risks and opportunities.
The study showed raising capital is second only to ESG as the biggest risk to the sector.
The Northern Miner’s Editor-in-Chief, Alisha Hiyate, recently sat down with Theo Yameogo, EY Mining & Metals sector leader in the Americas and Canada, to delve deeper into the research.
Yameogo highlighted the intertwining of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors with capital needs, the emergence of new capital sources such as pension and sovereign funds, and the evolving landscape of mining operations due to ESG mandates.
He also addresses the varied global landscape of mining talent and the potential of digital innovation to resolve this issue.
