CEO Andrew Mackenzie and the focus on productivity of capital at BHP in 2012-2014
08/08/2013
The focus shifts to productivity of capital and cost improvements at large mining companies after the period of higher prices is over for commodities in 2012-2013. Large capital writedowns have created a crisis of confidence with investors. Large projects remain incomplete, making the process of reducing capital expenditures a gradual one.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
