    Hedge fund from Russia
    Dear Sirs,

    For your information, we have initiated the process of setting up a Russia-oriented metals & mining hedge fund.
    In view on the following points:

    • inflated activity in global metals & mining industry, bolstered by China growth;
    • plenty of investment opportunities in Russian metals & mining, still undiscovered by developed investing world;
    • our more than 10-year experience in Russian mining industry
    • wide scope of our local connections,
    • ready list of potential projects under consideration;

    We think that the emerging international hedge fund would best suit our incentives and the demand of investment professionals worldwide.

    We see the key guidelines of the investment policy as follows:

    • investments in the full range of metals & mining projects (except oil & gas, including non-metallic and non-ore assets), related infrastructure projects may also be considered;
    • investment horizon – 3-5 years, exit through sale to mining majors or IPO on Hong Kong Stock Exchange
    • expected total investments – US$ 100-150 mn / 3-5 projects
    • investment at development stage, to bring the asset to production within the investment horizon
    • standard hedge fund organization / compensation practices

    The pool of investors is now being formed. We are considering collaboration with partner hedge funds to offer your clients exposure on Russian metals & mining market and diversification opportunities in general.
