    MMG Investment Narrative Recap

    To own MMG, you need to be comfortable with a copper focused, Las Bambas heavy story where political, social and project execution risks sit alongside the appeal of earnings growth. The latest leadership reshuffle looks incrementally supportive for near term execution at Las Bambas and across Africa, but it does not fundamentally change the fact that community unrest and project delivery remain the most immediate swing factors for MMG’s results.

    Among recent announcements, the elevation of Nan Wang to Chief Operating Officer and the expanded remit for CFO Qian Song stand out as most relevant here, given their direct link to global asset planning, cost control and systems upgrades. Taken together with the new Las Bambas and Africa presidents, these moves embed operational expertise at the very assets and functions tied to MMG’s key growth projects and its most exposed risk areas.
