You would all be familiar with Australia’s status as a resources powerhouse. Digging stuff up out of the ground has long been our specialty with it not being uncommon for a figure on the AFR’s Rich List to have a resources background.
Our next guest, Benjamin Cleary, is a subject matter expert. Ben heads up Tribeca’s Natural Resources business but alongside David Alyward has been critical in growing the entire Tribeca business. Ben’s role in building Tribeca into a multi billion dollar Fund manager with expertise across asset management, wealth management, and corporate advisory has been significant. Ben’s role in growing Tribeca’s business throughout Singapore has been a catalyst for getting the business to today’s position.
Through Tribeca, Ben has cornerstoned over $10b in natural resources transactions working closely
alongside financial advisers and companies. Today he heads up the ASX-listed Tribeca Global Natural Resources Fund, investing across listed companies locally and overseas, direct investments in carbon credits, commodities and private sector debt.
Hello and welcome back to The Business Of, I’m Charlie and I’m Will.
On today’s podcast we unpack with Ben the genesis for his rise at Tribeca on the back of a shake up in the financial services industry post GFC.
We get Ben’s thoughts on the regulatory environment in which local and global resources companies are operating.
Finally, we get Ben’s take on the impact of electrification on demand for critical minerals and resources such as copper while considering potential issues associated with the supply of the goods.
We hope you enjoy!
