3. Interpretation

1. “Asarco Inc.” showing up as part of “Asarco AG” reflects translation conventions:

AG → Corporation (German)

SA → Société Anonyme (French)

Inc. → English-style incorporation

This is normal in Swiss corporate practice for cross-border or multi-lingual reporting.

2. Corporate purpose:

The description is deliberately broad, allowing the company to engage in financial transactions, trust services, consultancy, and ownership of diverse assets.

Such descriptions are standard for Swiss AGs that provide banking, investment, or fiduciary services.

3. Personnel changes:

Removal/addition of individuals (Beltracchi → Haberthür) indicates normal board or signatory updates, which is tracked in the commercial registry.

4. Overall meaning:

Asarco AG is a legitimate Swiss corporate entity, capable of performing banking-like and fiduciary functions, and can operate under different names (AG, SA, Inc.) for international dealings.

It is not unusual to see “Asarco Inc.” in English-language contexts; this does not indicate a separate entity."

But inc does indicate asarco inc. SA likely is south america
