Jim Rogers Joins Marc Faber on Leopard Capital Adivisory Council

Jim Rogers and Marc Faber, Sri Lanka

Jim Rogers and Marc Faber has been asked to sit on the advisory council of Leopard Capital, a private equity business which has launched one fund focusing on Sri Lanka, and is ready to launch another, which is what they're looking for the advise of Marc Faber and Jim Rogers on.

Jim Rogers is connected to a number of commodity ventures and indices, while Marc Faber is of course widely known for his Gloom, Boom and Doom Report newsletter, which focuses on unique investments around the globe.

This is interesting if for no other reason than very few people know a thing about Sri Lanka in the investment world, and it's not exactly near the top of places people and institutions are looking to to generate wealth.

At least some of what is offered in Sri Lanka will be known with the names of these two guys associated with it, and that will probably be good for Sri Lanka, and will definitely be good for Leopard Capital, as both investors has strong and committed followers who will definitely take at least a peek under the hood of the market now that Rogers and Faber are connected to it.

For Jim Rogers, he's been an evangelist for the Asian market for many years, but I can't recall him ever mentioning Sri Lanka in any of his talks or communications. Interesting news as to why both of these investors chose to respond to Leopard Capital in this, and I think we'll find out sometime fairly soon if it was only the money paid to do it or there's something in the country attractive to invest in.

Well, he has. He mentioned it several times right after their civil war came to an end.
