Natural resources royalty and streaming company Anglo Pacific has announced Marc Bishop Lafleche its new CEO, taking over from Julian Treger when he steps down at the end of March.
Bishop Lafleche has been with the company for the past eight years, most recently as chief investment officer responsible for originating and executing the group's acquisitions and disposals.
Anglo Pacific said that Bishop Lafleche was responsible for the group's most recent and transformational Voisey's Bay cobalt stream acquisition and the successful exit of its only thermal coal royalty.
"This appointment follows a highly rigorous process, which resulted in a number of very strong candidates being considered. The board unanimously felt that Marc is ideally suited to continue the disciplined and ambitious growth path focused on commodities that support a more sustainable world,” said chairperson Patrick Meier.
The board also expressed its thanks and appreciation to Treger who had led the group for more than eight years and had been instrumental in transitioning the business away from coal and towards twenty-first century commodities.
“We will miss Julian, his astute investment judgement, wisdom and experience, and wish him well as he pursues new ventures."
