He has worked in Australia, Asia, England and North America, including working with Jefferies and Co. in New York, where he was responsible for advising and raising capital for hedge and mutual funds. In 2007, Mr. Stewart became a board member of BDI Mining, a diamond producer, where he negotiated a profitable sale of the company to GEM Diamonds.
