Global consultancy BBGC has secured a CTRM managed services contract from one of the world’s largest mining firms. The deal with Rio Tinto further strengthens the advisory firm’s significant collaboration in the industry.

Founded in 1873, Rio Tinto is British-Australian firm in the mining sector. Named after the Rio Tinto river in Southern Spain where it began its mining journey, today, it is the world’s second-largest metals and mining corporation with a presence in 35 countries. But it is also looking to leverage new technologies to build upon that legacy in the future.

Marcus Ang, senior product manager at Rio Tinto, remarked, “We are thrilled to strengthen our partnership with BBGC as we continue to anchor a stable operational foundation while expanding our commodities trading capabilities in the years ahead. This collaboration reflects our shared vision to address complex challenges with care, courage and curiosity to create a positive impact to Rio Tinto and the industry which we operate.”
