Why Vaults & Custody Matter for Institutional Gold Holdings
Institutional vault custody ensures that every bar of gold is not only physically stored but also legally recognized, insured, and verifiable. Allocated storage provides investors with clear ownership rights, secure protection, and transparent oversight — turning gold into a fully accountable financial asset.
Segregated Storage in Global Hubs
Allocated bullion is held in secure international vaults, located in leading financial centers. Each client’s holdings are fully segregated from other assets, ensuring that serial numbers and weight records can be verified at any time. This structure protects ownership integrity and provides the highest level of physical security.
Comprehensive Insurance Coverage
All holdings are protected under all-risk global insurance, arranged with international carriers. Insurance certificates confirm that every bar is covered against loss, theft, or damage, giving clients and institutions complete confidence in their custody arrangements.
Independent Verification and Audits
Vault holdings undergo regular inspections by independent third-party auditors. These audits verify the presence, authenticity, and segregation of gold, providing an external layer of assurance for compliance with LBMA and global standards. Audit certificates can be issued as proof of holdings for reporting purposes.
Reporting and Compliance Oversight
Institutional reporting structures include barlists with serial numbers, periodic custody statements, and digital access to ownership data. This supports corporate accounting, external audits, and compliance with regulatory frameworks across multiple jurisdictions.
Benefits for Treasuries and Family Offices
Vault custody transforms gold from a passive reserve into a transparent, accountable asset class. For treasuries, funds, and family offices, the system provides a foundation for balance-sheet recognition, risk management, and long-term financial governance.
