The Chile Day is a public-private collaboration, sponsored by the Chilean Ministry of Finance, whose main objective is to position Chile as a highly attractive destination for foreign investment. It takes place 4 times a year in New York, London, Toronto and Paris. This year, Mr. Mario Marcel, the Minister of Finance of Chile, heads the delegation which includes several other high-level authorities.
Los Andes has been invited to participate in a panel to discuss "Stimulating Investment and Growth: Accelerating Permits and Improving Regulation Benchmarks and Trends." The panel will be led by Francisco Saffie, the Economic Regulation Coordinator from the Ministry of Finance of Chile, and will include representatives of BHP, Eren Groupe, and Los Andes Copper.
Santiago Montt, CEO of Los Andes, commented: "I am very pleased to have been asked to participate on this panel. The Chilean government is making important efforts to improve our current system of regulations and permitting processes, with the goal of securing the leadership position that the country has had as a destination for foreign investment, in mining, energy and several other industrial sectors. We are delighted to share our experience from the perspective of a greenfield project."
