A LOW PRICE
The price of gold is now at a 5 ½ year low. Essentially, investors get double the amount of gold for their money as they would have five years ago, presenting a strong buying opportunity
PRIVATE INVESTMENT
Unlike shares or banking, there is no requirement to register ownership of gold. Physical gold is one of the only forms of private investment left today.
INHERITANCE & LEGACY
Physical Gold can be tax efficient when leaving your wealth to loved ones.
INSURANCE AGAINST INFLATION
In times of inflation, gold’s value tends to increase in line with other products and commodities.
DIVERSIFY YOUR PORTFOLIO
Gold tends to increase in value when other commonly held assets fall. For this reason, experts recommend investing in gold as part of a diverse portfolio.
CAPITAL GROWTH & RETURNS
Gold remains the best performing UK asset of the 21st century, rising 330% since 1999, against the FTSE of 173% and the housing market rise of 231%.
TAX ADVANTAGES
Certain types of physical gold are free from any tax on growth.
SITS OUTSIDE THE BANKING SYSTEM
Individuals who convert their savings or pension into physical gold are essentially removing their wealth from the banking system and any associated counterparty risks.
UNIVERSAL CURRENCY, EASY TO LIQUIDATE
Physical gold is recognised and sought after all over the world and as such can be exchanged for global currency, goods or services and can be easily liquidated.
RARITY
Unlike currency, gold cannot simply be created; its finite supply ensures its enduring value. There is only enough gold in the world to fill two Olympic-size swimming pools.
