Gold Storage — Institutional Custody Solutions
Store Gold with Allocated Custody — Verified & Insured
Allocated gold custody ensures that every LBMA Good Delivery bar is individually registered, insured, and held under the client’s name.

Storage is managed in secure vaults in Dubai and Hong Kong, with 24/7 reporting access.
