Overview
Equinox Partners is a concentrated global investment manager with long-standing exposure to precious-metals miners, exploration-and-production companies, emerging markets, and other resource sectors.

This allows it to compare mining and energy opportunities with other deeply discounted companies across global markets. Within The Economy Wiki, the institution is connected to the Commodities & Real Assets Hedge Funds category.
