Report summary
During 2016, there has been on-going media speculation that Vale, the world's biggest iron ore miner, was considering a US$10 billion iron ore streaming agreement with a group of Chinese companies, led by sovereign wealth fund China Investment Corporation. Vale has firmly denied the reports, but it is interesting to consider a hypothetical agreement, as at a high level there could be appeal in a streaming deal for both sides.
