Well done to University of Sydney and more specifically South Asian Business Society for hosting a great industry conference. To Jessica David congratulations for a great year as president, and well done Saachi Arora for outstanding panel Q&A. Blackwattle Investment Partners was privileged to be involved, we already look forward to next year.
As we wrap up a busy semester, I’m happy to share on the success of our recent South Asian Business Society USYD industry conference. Over the past few months, I had the opportunity to be a part of the organising team of an insightful conference that featured a valuable Personal Finance Speaker Session hosted by Jessica Leung followed by an engaging Panel Discussion featuring panelists with expertise across varying fields. The opportunity to facilitate an esteemed panel was an exciting experience. The depth of insights shared by our panellists Saurabh Gupta , Michael Skinner , Joanne Han, CA & Ankur Sood on relevant trends like ESG and crucial skills required to succeed in today’s dynamic market made the overall discussion valuable. Lastly, I’d like to thank Jessica David Divyansh Singhal Himani Gupta and the rest of the SABS team for making this event a success. Thank you to everyone who attended the conference and for those who missed out, see you next year!

Thankyou Ray David for sharing your insights with the The Australian Financial Review. Ray discusses his views on lithium, and specifically Rio Tinto. Please see a snippet below: According to Blackwattle Investment Partners’ Ray David, the Arcadium acquisition could turn out to be one of Rio Tinto’s finest, in contrast with massive top-of-the-cycle bets on Canadian aluminium group Alcan and Riversdale Coal that dusted tens of billions of dollars of shareholder wealth. If the name of the game is to own tier-one, low-cost assets with long reserve lives in stable jurisdictions, then Rio Tinto’s purchase of Arcadium ticks three of the four boxes with some sovereign risk in South America, which is where most brine projects are situated. Rio Tinto, David says, is using a strategy that works well in the board game Monopoly – start strong, buy quality assets and swoop when competitors weaken. “There is no other buyer of lithium assets given weakened balance sheets from overdevelopment,” he says. “Rio knows that the sun has set on China steel consumption, while lithium demand is still nascent. Buying low-cost lithium assets such as Arcadium at current lithium prices makes total sense to us as Rio Tinto shareholders.” https://lnkd.in/gJHQt8W3
Have Australian fund managers got their lithium call wrong?
