Overview
Global Resources Investment Trust is an investment fund specialising in the natural resources industry. The fund primarily invests in small and medium sized listed stocks.
The principals behind Global Resources Investment Trust believe that there is a huge opportunity to profit in the junior resources and mining industry, which has been devastated in the last few years primarily due to heavy risk aversion by investors. They say these companies are sitting on minerals resources that could be extremely profitable, but lack either the cash, management or scale to exploit this resource. Global Resources Investment Trust intends to find the best and most undervalued of these prospects and help these companies to maximise shareholder value in the medium to long term.
