Industry: Metals, minerals and mining
As demonstrated with all of its private equity funds, RCF seeks a diversified portfolio and is therefore not, constrained by geography, commodity, and phase of project or investment structure. Below are the broad investment criteria RCF uses when evaluating investment opportunities:
Investment size:
- Core investments by the Funds range from approximately $10M up to approximately $300M, with RCF also having the interest and capacity to lead an investment in a single transaction of up to approximately $500M.
- Strategic equity investments are made in amounts of as little as $1M. They are made in companies of interest to RCF which may not currently meet all criteria for a larger investment, or which may not have an immediate need for a larger investment. Strategic equity investments are generally made in situations where an opportunity is identified for a material follow-on investment in the future.
Time horizon: 4 to 7 years
Global focus: RCF has invested globally and does not have a preference or particular regional focus.
