“Gold is money. Everything else is credit” J.P. Morgan

Overview

The Gold-Backed Income Program offers a secure and stable investment opportunity for those seeking capital preservation with consistent returns. Leveraging the value of physical gold, this program operates under a strict compliance framework and adheres to international standards, ensuring transparency and reliability.
Investors in this program receive income generated from the purchase and sale of gold at fixed discounts. Unlike traditional investment strategies, this program is not subject to the volatility of the gold market price itself, making it an ideal option for those seeking predictable, non-correlated returns.

The income generated is paid out bi-monthly, providing a stable cash flow that is not affected by fluctuations in market conditions. With a 15% annual return, it remains a highly attractive option for investors looking for low-risk income streams.

Key Features:

• Attractive Returns: Earn 15% annually, with payments made bi-monthly to a client-nominated bank account.

• Income Flexibility: Choose to receive income payments or reinvest to compound capital over time.

• Full Liquidity: The program offers full liquidity after each bi-monthly trade cycle, ensuring that investors have access to their capital when needed.

• Non-Correlated Investment: The returns are not affected by the movement of gold prices or broader market fluctuations, making this a highly stable investment option.

• Operational Excellence: Gold transactions are rigorously managed from purchase through delivery, ensuring that every step adheres to compliance standards and is backed by certification and transparency.

• Secure and Compliant: All gold transactions follow international guidelines, with full documentation and certification of origin.

Operations Highlight:

Since 2019, our partners have adhered to a strict policy of targeted and precise purchases of gold. Transactions are made through our Dubai entity, following each procedure diligently.

The process begins at ground level where raw gold is purchased, up to logistics of shipping. Prior to shipping, the product undergoes an initial detailed inspection. This is carried out by a professional PMMC appointed laboratory.

At this stage of the process, the origin of the product is certified and both; tax liabilities and custom’s requirements are fulfilled in line with compliance procedures, which meet relevant international standards.

Once the documentation has been prepared, the product is finally shipped to a refinery in Dubai, UAE.
