Our CEO, Juan Luis Kruger, was recognized for the third consecutive year as the most profitable CEO in Peru, according to the Semana Económica magazine. In this regard, he pointed out some of the key aspects of his successful management of Minsur: “We have a great team, a clear strategy, and we stay focused, even when dealing with difficult times. We also work to fulfill our purpose: We improve lives, by transforming minerals into wellbeing”.
Kruger emphasizes that in the mining industry, companies do not control prices, and thus, they must rigorously manage costs. “In the short term, there are many variables that we don´t control, which places us in a volatile context. There is uncertainty worldwide. Political elections are happening in countries that represent 40% of global GDP, the main country being the United States, and China is seeking mechanisms to sustain growth, though domestic demand has not yet recovered”, he explains. Although the supply and demand for metals have solid foundations, global events may alter prices.
He called upon our country so that it doesn´t miss the opportunity, considering a global context, where minerals produced by Peru will be crucial for energy transition. “Currently, tin is the most demanded metal, with an interesting perspective for the next 10 years. We cannot miss this opportunity”, he said. Therefore, it is fundamental that the rules provide competitiveness and stability.
