Why Crucial Minerals Now?
The global energy transition and ongoing digitalisation are rapidly driving demand for so-called crucial minerals – strategically important raw materials. Rare earths and strategic metals such as copper, lithium, cobalt, and other mineral resources are indispensable for battery technologies, renewable energy, and modern infrastructure. Supply, however, remains limited, as there are only a few specialised mining companies worldwide operating in these segments. The Crucial Minerals AMC offers investors targeted access to these companies across the entire value chain.
Access to Specialised Mining Companies
The Crucial Minerals Certificate provides focused access to the most promising producers of rare earths and strategic metals worldwide. It invests in 25 equally weighted, publicly listed companies – a balanced mix of established producers, select late-stage developers, and high-growth early-stage developers with long-term potential. Stock selection is supported by a proprietary, data-driven scoring model that evaluates over 300 companies annually using more than 100 qualitative and quantitative factors – including financial strength, operational efficiency, and ESG profile.
• Focused portfolio of 25 small- and mid-cap producers, plus select late-stage developers.
