It used to be very difficult for private individuals to find a simple, safe and cost-effective way of buying, storing, and then selling gold.The main problem was the sheer size of the investment you needed to make to access the best prices - and there were extra complications with integrity and storage too.
Direct access to the very best prices
- BullionVault.com changes all this. It enables people from all over the world to own professional market gold and keep it in any quantity in officially recognized bullion vaults in London (UK), New York (USA), or Zurich (Switzerland).
- All BullionVault gold is held in Good Delivery form. So when you come to sell, your buyer is able to trust the purity and weight of your gold, which is guaranteed by BullionVault itself because we know that you never had the chance to corrupt it.
- So the dealing spread is typically 0.4%, about one-tenth of the equivalent cost charged to private customers for gold coins and small bars.
- You can buy just a small portion of a 400-ounce bar. You can trade on-line in increments as small as 1 gram - currently about $30.
- BullionVault is not a unit trust / mutual. There is no 5% front end subscription load. When buying gold you pay a commission whose maximum rate is 0.8%, falling progressively when you invest above $30,000 to the spectacularly low rate of 0.02%.
- Storage charges are down to wholesale rates of 0.12% pa ($4 per month minimum) with insurance included. That's less than a tenth of the storage fees charged by retail banks, and less than one-third the annual fees charged by typical exchange-traded gold funds (ETFs).
- BullionVault customers also save money because they deal directly with each other, willing seller to willing buyer, by using our order board.
- You make a further big saving at settlement time too. You don't have to arrange for expensive armoured courier bullion collections.
