Credit
Providing debt orientated funding alternatives to development and operating stage companies
About Us
RCF Credit intends to create a diversified portfolio of credit investments across three broad strategies: development capital, growth and operating capital and special situations.
Providing credit funding alternatives
Attracting risk capital to the development and expansion of mines needed to provide critical metals and minerals relies on ready access to credit which has become increasingly difficult and expensive for mining companies.
We intend to provide a range of flexible debt-orientated funding instruments to both development and operating stage companies. Our experienced team will consider opportunities across all commodities and comfortable funding high quality assets in sectors and geographies where there is less appetite from commercial banks.
Our core focus is on privately negotiated bespoke debt packages complemented by investments in the public and privately traded debt markets.
RCF Credit has deep experience providing credit instruments to the mining sector using flexible approaches to structuring.
