Physical assets hold an intrinsic value and have proven to be excellent and timeless investments in the face of economic crises. Derivatives, which have become so popular with investors, are not actually backed by a physical asset, they simply mirror the price of an underlying asset. Given the current volatility of the paper markets and ongoing scandals about the gold held in central banks and price manipulation, holding allocated bullion is a far superior investment because it means you physically own your precious metal. Furthermore, physical precious metals are highly liquid assets that can be easily converted to cash and do not involve a liability or creditor relationship. In turbulent economic times dictated by inflation, the failure of central banking and the unreliability of fiat currencies, physical precious metals provide true value and appeal to serious investors.
Most of the gold traded in the world is unallocated, specifically the gold bought and sold through the banking system. This means that an investor does not actually own the gold they’ve purchased; the bank owns this gold and the investor is merely a creditor to the bank. This carries the huge negative of counterparty risk; if the counterparty defaults, your investment dissolves with them. Owning allocated physical bullion means that legal title of your investment is in your name and thus safe in any insolvency scenario.
At BC, the bullion an investor purchases is allocated to them with a Holder Identification Number (HIN). This bullion can be stored in the BC Vault Network or delivered anywhere in the world upon request. As legal title to the metal is held by the client, it does not appear on the balance sheet of either ABX or the vault provider. This is considered to be one of the safest forms of bullion ownership.

MetalDesk is Bullion Capital’s web-based trading platform, specifically designed for the trading and inventory management of physical precious metal.
Allocated storage is the arrangement whereby physical bullion is owned outright by the customer, with Bullion Capital securely storing it on that customer’s behalf as custodian. Legal title to the metal is held by the client; it does not appear on the balance sheet of either Bullion Capital or the vault provider. This is considered to be one of the safest forms of bullion ownership.
