Fraser Institute Mining Investment Survey

Minex — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 06:54:16 +0000

Dear Minex Mining forum participant and news subscriber.

We would like to invite you on behalf of Fraser Institute to participate in the annual survey of mining investment climate in the world. Your views on changes and developments in Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine and other CIS states will help with creating more objective overview of the current investment climate in these countries which will be reflected in the annual survey published by the Institute.

To participate in the survey please complete the form and email it to Miguel Angel Cervantes at miguel.cervantes@fraserinstitute.org

Fraser Institute, Canada’s leading economic think tank, is now conducting its annual survey of how miners and explorers rate the investment climate of jurisdictions around the world. The results identify the countries, states, and provinces whose mining policies and taxation structure are predictable and transparent and thus create the lowest barriers to investment in the mining sector.

Mining ministries around the world — particularly in Canada — pay close attention to the survey. The interest shown by Canadian public officials has helped put most Canadian provinces at the top of the policy heap, though more work needs to be done. This points to an interesting fact. Government officials may not fully understand the impact of policy decisions and find the survey a highly useful source of information. Many say they use the survey to determine weak spots in their regulatory regime and correct them.

This year we included three eastern European countries, Poland, Romania and Ukraine.I am trying to reach miners who invest in Eastern Europe, so I would like to see If you could provide contacts from miners in Ukraine, or you could help us in other way. I hope to hear from you.
