They’re called precious metals for a reason - they are rare, high in economic value and provide investors with a means of storing wealth. Today's guest is Cam Currie, senior investment advisor at Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management, and leader of Currie Metals & Mining Group. Cam joins us today to share his experience investing in gold and why everyone should consider it a portfolio staple but only a few understand when the time is right to start looking at equities. Is now the time?
In North America, gold, silver and other precious metals are often overlooked in favour of flashier sectors such as cryptocurrencies or tech unicorns.
If you are an investor yourself, this episode will provide you with a unique perspective of how to evaluate the mining industry. As a CEO or IR professional of a mining company it will provide you with unique guidance on the type of narrative that a professional investor needs to hear to consider investing in your company.

How is a company evaluated by a professional investor? What are the first factors the consider before diving into the details? If you're curious, this episode is for you!
The resources sector is cyclical by nature. As a result, commodity prices can be volatile, with fluctuating levels of demand occurring at various stages of excess or restricted supply.
As you’ll learn from today’s guest, however, there are some attractive valuations to be found! Gabriel Alonso-Mendoza is the Co-founder and Managing Partner of Amvest Capital, a New York-based specialist investment management and corporate finance firm focused solely on the natural resources sector.
Gabriel takes a concentrated approach when evaluating new clients or portfolio companies, and during the course of his career, he has raised and invested more than $1 billion in the agriculture, oil and gas, and mining and metals industries. In this episode, we take a look at what goes into Amvest’s focused approach to evaluating investment opportunities across the natural resources sector.
Tuning in, you’ll also receive some practical advice for achieving liquidity in a fluctuating market and building trust, long-term relationships, and open communication with your investor base, particularly in an increasingly virtual world.
You won’t want to miss this insightful conversation with Gabriel Alonso-Mendoza, an experienced leader in the natural resources sector!
