We choose to be rigorous, consistent, and principled in all of our undertakings, and strive to be professional, patient, and persistent.
At RCF, we strive to be the best in everything that we do. We are continuously learning, improving, and challenging ourselves and each other. This requires discipline in approach and process. It’s what ensures we have a robust investment decision-making process that allows us to become a better investor.

Integrity
We are honest, straightforward, and fair in our dealings with all RCF stakeholders – our employees, our limited partners, our portfolio companies and the wider mining and investment community.
Integrity and honesty are at the core of our values. We do the right things because they are the right things to do, we tell the truth, and we keep our promises. This builds trust and fosters strong relationships with our stakeholders.

Partner, General Counsel
Respect
We endeavor to be respectful and humble while avoiding behavior that is arrogant and self-serving in our interactions internally and externally.
Business is about people. Successful relationships are built upon mutual respect, empathy, and trust. It’s how we operate, what we look for when we hire, and demonstrative of the long-term relationships we’ve built over the last two plus decades.
Michele Valenti
Partner, Chief Operating Officer
Teamwork
We seek to foster an environment of camaraderie at RCF and treat all stakeholders – both internal and external – as partners.
Meeting our investor’s expectations takes creativity and exceptional collaboration and teamwork. Across our seven offices globally, we endeavor to create and sustain long term partnerships to better our industry.
