Focused, Disciplined Engagement
Finova engages selectively in a defined range of asset classes and transaction contexts where our operating model is appropriate and where disciplined, governance-led engagement can be applied effectively.
These engagements typically share common characteristics, including strategic importance, complexity, jurisdictional considerations, and elevated requirements for discretion, verification, and structured execution. The areas set out below are indicative rather than exhaustive. They are intended to provide clarity around the types of contexts in which Finova operates and to help prospective counterparties assess alignment at an early stage.
Areas of Primary Engagement
Finova’s areas of primary engagement include, in order:
- Precious Metals
- Industrial and Base Metals
- Precious Stones
- Energy and Fuels
- Rare Earths and Critical Minerals
- Construction Materials and Equipment
- Art and Collectables
- Strategic Property and Trophy Real Estate
- Transport Assets
- Businesses and Strategic Assets
Engagement across these areas is non-retail, non-speculative, and typically occurs in private, off-market, or controlled environments.
Context and Boundaries
The inclusion of an asset class does not imply availability, activity, or a willingness to engage in all circumstances. Each potential engagement is assessed independently, taking into account:
- alignment with Finova’s operating principles,
- governance, risk, and jurisdictional considerations, and
- clarity of authority, legitimacy, and intent.
Where alignment exists, engagement proceeds in a structured and disciplined manner.
Where it does not, clarity is provided early.
Indicative, Not Exhaustive
The areas listed above are intended to guide understanding rather than define rigid limits. Exceptional or non-standard situations may be considered on a case-by-case basis where clear alignment exists. Such consideration should not be assumed.
