Securing Origination: Ankesh Shahra at the Rabo Bank Advisory Board Meeting in Hong Kong, 2012

Shahra – Director, Business Development for Ruchi Agritrading Pte Ltd, Singapore were invited to attend the prestigious Rabo Bank Food & Agribusiness Advisory Board Meeting that was held in Hong Kong in November 2012. The Theme of the meeting was ‘Burgeoning world food demand and the shrinking  corporate universe” and Ruchi was specifically asked to present their views and perspectives on the importance of M&A for Ruchi across the Food and Agriculture supply chain.  Spread across two days, there were several important thought provoking issues discussed between the key decision makers of the largest Food and agribusiness companies from Asia and the world.

Mr. Dinesh Shahra spoke about the importance of acquisitions at the low end of the business cycle and the value that high quality upstream assets at origination offer for companies such as Ruchi. In  a discussion moderated by x-CNBC anchor Ms. Lorraine Hahn, Mr. Dinesh Shahra mentioned that Asian companies should continue to vertically integrate but in order to remain sustainable, they must combine this integration with specialization down the chain. This is to ensure that they remain the most efficient users of the capital they possess, as niche/specialized companies are on a growth trajectory and are delivering exceptional returns. CBI
