M&A and Strategic Projects

Mining

GHP Group’s key industrial focus is metals and mining. The group’s partners and experts have participated in the largest and most important sector-oriented transactions worldwide. Since 2000, Fleming Family and Partners (the former name of GHP Group) has acted as an adviser to Russia’s leading mining companies (GMK Norilsk Nickel and its gold-mining business which was later spun off as Polyus Gold, and also Rosneft, Gazprombank and SUAL).

In 2003, GHP Group’s forerunner began investing directly in the Russian economy. The Group established gold extraction company Highland Gold Mining and organised its subsequent listing on the London Stock Exchange. It has also expanded iron ore mining company Aricom Plc by taking advantage of being its majority shareholder at that time.
