Like other industries, the mining industry has grappled with the COVID-19 pandemic and governmental responses to it for much of 2020. We seek in this article of our latest Energy & Infrastructure Insight report, to revisit what the mining industry has stopped talking about, including the push for greater focus on ESG matters and what that means for capital raising in the mining industry; the prevalence of alternative sources of financing and resulting effects on the mining industry; and the ways in which mining companies should assess and take action to mitigate their anti-bribery and anti-corruption compliance risks.
