General informations

Gold is and will always be a “safe haven value”. Thus, 75 % gold companies predict that gold prices continue to increase.

Purchases of gold from central banks, mainly in emerging countries seeking to diversify their reserves, have increased their purchases according to the World Gold Council (WGC), which federates the gold industry.

The Royal Canadian Mint has sold a record number of 29.2 million ounces of its silver maple leaf and 709,000 ounces of its gold maple leaf.

  1. Why invest in “physical” precious metals?

    Gold and silver can help to protect securities in portfolio against inflation, deflation, stagflation, systemic failure, financial collapse and currency devaluation. In opposition to stocks, bonds and traditional money market instruments, gold and silver, because of their physical properties, are an asset where price is generally not dependent on results, future growth or payment to come. These physical properties are used to convert the gold and silver into other property or investments, which can provide to investors an immediate liquidity than other types of investments. It is wise to acquire to diversify its portfolio and to guard against currency variations, stock values, financial securities and other financial products “paper”.

    In long term, gold and silver have always maintain their value better than other asset classes because they generally offer better protection against inflation. The fundamentals of the gold and silver have risen steadily in recent years which have resulted in an increase to record levels (source Royal Canadian Mint, the program of Canadian gold reserves, Nov. 2011).

    Investment in paper gold is risky for anyone who wants to secure its future.”Physical Investments” rose sharply over the world, while stocks (ETF, TBT and similar actions) saw their offers fall (source: Thomson Reuters, GFMS, World Gold Council). A “paper investment” does not necessarily include a “physical” product behind your investment, but future contracts expire and derivatives to “hedge your investments.” In case of default by the issuer, the “paper gold” will not be assigned under any circumstances, often nonexistent.

    We do not offer trust fund shares, exchange traded funds (ETF) or mutual funds (MF), we propose instead a “direct ownership” with physical gold and silver products.
