“At Wheaton Precious Metals, we are committed to promoting responsible mining practices and giving back to the communities where we live and operate. The sustainability of our business and the industry is dependent on it. It is the right thing to do.”
- Randy Smallwood, President & CEO
Wheaton Precious Metals is the world’s largest silver and gold streaming company. We serve the mining industry by providing funding solutions for mine operators. It is our responsibility to ensure that we partner with mine operators that share our values and belief in responsible mining. Our values guide every decision we make as a company and as individual employees. Wheaton’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) program is driven by proactive initiatives that are monitored and evaluated to continuously improve our engagement practices.
As part of this commitment to responsible mining, before entering into an agreement with a mine operator, we exercise a thorough Due Diligence Process guided by our Investment Principles. The process includes an extensive technical, financial, and economic analysis, and a thorough review of potential environmental, social, and, governance (ESG) risks. In addition, ongoing due diligence processes are deployed with regard to each asset where the Company has a streaming agreement in place. By addressing ESG factors in our investment decisions, we are able to better manage risks and generate sustainable, long-term value for all of our stakeholders.
Our commitment is driven by core values that define what is important to us and form the foundation for how we operate.
We are guided by our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics at every level of the company. We are honest and accountable in all our business matters and dealings.
Long-term value can only be achieved through sustainable business practices from an economic, social, and environmental perspective.
We believe everyone should go home safe and healthy each and every day, from the employees at our offices to the employees working at our partners’ mine sites.
We approach every aspect of our business with an attitude of respect for each other, the environment, and for the cultural integrity of the communities where we operate.
We take ownership of our decisions and actions. Accountability sets the stage for operational excellence.
We deliver excellence through a disciplined approach focused on value creation.
