Xstrata at a Glance
Group structure
Xstrata’s activities are organised into five global commodity businesses and a technology business, each of which operates with a high level of autonomy. Xstrata differentiates itself from industry peers by devolving maximum responsibility and authority to its commodity business units. We believe this directly benefits our operations by creating a strong sense of local ownership, where entrepreneurial managers are empowered and incentivised to address site-specific challenges and seize opportunities. Xstrata’s commodity businesses are supported by a small corporate centre, split between the head office in Zug, Switzerland and a corporate office in London, UK.
