BullionVault – Advantages

BullionVault.com gives clients access to gold and silver like a normal bullion dealer. They set the prices, and users can buy and sell in a competitive 24/7 liquid market. Other advantages include: - Multi-currency accounts supported: British pounds, Euros or US dollars. - Quickly and easily trade gold and silver bullion (once you have proved your identity – see below). - VAT (UK sales tax) does not apply unless you are taking delivery of silver, in which case the rate is 20%. - Access to very small quantities of gold and silver (starting at just 1 gram), meaning almost anyone can get the benefits of gold and silver trading. - Ability to keep gold and silver offshore is an excellent feature. For example, in 1933 the US government made it illegal for US citizens to hold gold. There is some evidence that politicians in the US wish to do so again. - Huge inventory of gold and silver – 22 tonnes of gold, $1bn in client gold and $163m in silver. - Excellent customer support by email, telephone and live chat. BullionVault.com are tough on potential money laundering – all new clients must provide identity and address information (passport and recent bank statement). Corporations must provide corporate documentation. Bullion Vault performs an audit on a daily basis to reconcile every client’s inventory against the latest bullion lists and bank statements.

BullionVault – Conclusion

BullionVault.com is a reputable, licensed and regulated bullion dealer, and is a good choice for any potential investor. Smaller investors will particularly like the fact that they can participate in the market with just small quantities available – something traditional dealers do not provide (instead offering coins and bars). One of the best things about setting up an account (which is free of charge) is the fact that you get a free gram of gold just for signing up and to get you started. We have created a short video to demonstrate how easy it is to set up and use your account, which you can find below.
