Make your way to the assembly point which is across the road and near the column outside Westminster Abbey, opposite the front of this conference centre’s main entrance. Anyone requiring special evacuation assistance because of impaired mobility should make themselves known to one of the marshals if they haven’t already done so. Thank you.

  • A Review of Debswana‟S Performance Pre and Post the Acquisition of De Beers Shares by Anglo American Plc
    A review of Debswana‟s performance pre and post the acquisition of De Beers shares by Anglo American plc. Khumo Mothulatshipi A research report submitted to the Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment, University of the Witwatersrand, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Engineering. Johannesburg, 2015 Declaration I declare that this research report is my own unaided work. Where work of other authors has been used, it has been duly acknowledged. It is being submitted for the Master of Science in Mining Engineering to the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted before for any degree or examination to any other university. ………………………………………………………………. Signature …………… day of ……………………year ………………………………….. i Abstract The minerals industry has in the last decade witnessed volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity (VUCA). The diamond industry has not been immune to these challenges. These challenges coincided with the decision of the diamond mining family in 2011 to opt out of De Beers after approximately a century of being in control by selling their 40 % stake to Anglo American plc (AA) which already had 45 % stake in De Beers. This transaction increased Anglo American plc‟s stake in De Beers to 85% thus joining venture with the Government of the Republic of Botswana (GRB) under an already existing entity called Debswana. Botswana has been hailed as a beacon of success and a model African state both politically and economically mainly due to its effective management of economic proceeds generated mainly through Debswana diamonds. Something that might be seen as a possible threat to this economic stability is the merger and acquisition (M&A) between the GRB and AA.
