Management and Economics Society
About MES
The Management and Economics Society, MES, is the former Mineral Economics Society of CIM. In addition to its traditional membership of those involved in economics and finance of mining (investment bankers, corporate bankers, investment analysts, mineral economists, chief executives, fund managers, capital markets professionals and others), the mandate was expanded to encompass members involved in all aspects of the management of companies active in the mining sector. MES is also the society within CIM for other diciplines who do not practice as geologists, engineers, metallurgists or environmental professionals; such as insurance, law, human resources and sustainable development.
MES sponsors events that provide a forum for industry professionals to share experiences, insights and ideas on topics relating to the economic, management and financial aspects of the business. In addition to technical sessions at the CIM Annual General Meeting, MES holds regular Symposia and Discussion Groups. These have provided information on topical issues within the field of mine finance, mineral economics and managment issues facing the industry.
MES uses its donations and profits generated from its Symposia to support supplemental educational programs in Canadian universities on topics related to mineral economics. MES has supported adjunct professor programs at the University of Toronto, Queen's University and the University of British Columbia; and has also supported other initiatives at other universities.
