Leone Asset Management, Inc. announced that its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, James Price, will travel to Sierra Leone for a series of strategic meetings focused on expanding the company’s interests in infrastructure, natural resources, agriculture, energy, and economic development.
Infrastructure Development
The visit will focus on the continued development activities of JP Anderson Ltd., Leone Asset Management’s Sierra Leone-based subsidiary and development platform. Discussions are expected to include meetings with government officials, traditional leadership, financial institutions, engineering and professional advisory firms, community representatives, and prospective strategic partners.
The company is evaluating an integrated Southern Province Economic Corridor & Infrastructure Initiative designed to connect energy, transportation, logistics, agriculture, natural resources, industrial development, and international trade into a coordinated regional development strategy.
Economic Growth
Leone Asset Management believes the opportunity in Sierra Leone extends beyond ownership of individual natural-resource and development assets. The company intends to explore the potential mobilization of long-duration institutional capital, including investment relationships and channels associated with U.S. and U.K. for qualifying projects.
