Mining & Metals – Investment Structuring & Risk Mitigation
This session would focus on how Japanese investors may approach mining investments – particularly in emerging markets or countries more exposed to sovereign risk – with an emphasis on managing risk and protecting long-term value.
Topics would include:
 • Political and geopolitical risk, including illustrative case studies
 • Treaty protection and dispute mitigation strategies
 • Anti-bribery, compliance and reputational considerations
 • Capital repatriation and structuring considerations
 • Joint venture structuring, partner selection, and governance
The session would be practical and solutions-oriented, focusing on how investments can be structured in a robust and secure manner.

Mining Adjacent Infrastructure & Value Chain Investment
This session will explore how producers and investors are monetizing and accessing opportunities across the mining value chain, with a focus on mining-adjacent infrastructure (including power, water, rail, ports and logistics), and what these trends reveal about the future direction of capital deployment in the sector.
Topics would include:
 • Unlocking value from infrastructure and other non-core assets
 • Building resilient supply chains through integrated investment across mining-adjacent infrastructure
 • The role of alternative capital (including insurance-backed solutions)
 • The use of prepayment, royalty and streaming arrangements as financing tools
 • Government support for critical minerals projects
This session is intended to provide a wider perspective on where and how capital needs to be deployed across the mining ecosystem, highlighting the importance of securing robust integrated supply chains and the role for both traditional and alternative funding structures.
