Buying gold bullion, the ultimate safe-haven investment

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Buying gold has always been a particularly wise choice. Far from being a conventional wisdom, buying bullion is within the reach of many. Here are a few arguments in favor of gold, and why you should trust Caraor with your purchase.

Since 2001 and the attack on the World Trace Center, interest rates on financial products have been reduced to a trickle, with increasingly dangerous structures (https://www.ideal-investisseur.fr/bourse/produit-structure-danger-8020.html). If keeping your money in a savings account doesn't pay off, or even costs you money, investment products offer a slightly higher return, provided you invest for the long term!

That's why buying gold is such an attractive alternative. You only have to open the newspapers to realize that the return on a gold investment is far superior to anything else. Not to mention the fact that gold has always withstood all crises, be they banking, economic or health-related.

Caraor, your bullion broker!

Caraor is registered with the Royal Belgian Mint, and is therefore the first choice when it comes to buying or selling LBMA-certified bullion. In Genval, in comfortable offices away from prying eyes, we welcome you for a confidential, no-obligation consultation.

We prefer direct, human contact for several reasons:

- Selling gold over the Internet presents risks in terms of confidentiality.

- Deliveries are never totally secure.

- Thanks to our contacts, you can buy brand new L.B.M.A. ingots at a lower price than those offered on Umicore's Internet shop .

- in addition, we have priority with our foundries, so we're likely to be able to supply you even when their shops are out of stock.

Our location in Genval, in the tranquility of Walloon Brabant, also offers you peace of mind. Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for companies based in large cities to be targeted by organized crime.

When you call on Caraor, you can be sure of a secure transaction with a professional, discreet player. What's more, we offer you the guarantee of a product of impeccable quality, created for you and sealed by an LBMA-approved smelter. The risk of acquiring a fake tungsten ingot simply doesn't exist!

The LBMA in a nutshell 

Founded in 1987, the LBMA stands for London Bullion Market Association. Its mission is to determine the price of gold. Twice a day, in London, it sets the official price, which serves as the basis for all transactions!

The LBMA sets refining standards and authorizes the circulation of gold and silver bars. It also monitors bullion distributors and refiners worldwide.

Using an LBMA-approved foundry is the absolute guarantee of a top-quality product.

 

Buying gold bars or coins?

Have you decided to buy gold? Congratulations! Now the question is whether to opt for coins or bullion! Of course, this decision depends on your personal situation, and several factors can influence your choice, such as the seller's margin, the time horizon of your investment, or where you will keep your gold.

As in any other business, the margin includes the costs of production, handling, storage and packaging, not to mention the commission paid by the company you call on! This margin generally depends on the amount of your investment, the type of parts or the weight of the ingot you wish to purchase.

This has two consequences:

First of all, ingots cost less to make than coins. Coins are more labor-intensive, and therefore generate higher margins. Similarly, if you're considering a long-term investment, it's better to buy a one-kilo ingot than ten hundred-gram ingots, for which the margin will be higher. That said, when it comes to historical bullion coins, the manufacturing costs are nil and their reliability is beyond question... Consequently, for small quantities they are less expensive than new ingots.

Secondly, it is impossible to publish a precise price. On the one hand, the official price of gold varies twice a day on the London Stock Exchange. Secondly, margins fluctuate according to the factors mentioned above.

A very wide range

When we said at the start of this article that buying gold bullion was within the reach of most people, it wasn't a figure of speech. At Caraor, you can find bullion in a range of weights, from grams to kilograms, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 250 and 500 grams.

We can also supply you with a variety of parts and nuggets if you wish.

At what price?

During our meeting, if you decide to buy gold bullion, we'll offer you two options. You can either opt for new, sealed bars with their LBMA certificate of authenticity, or you can choose bars that have already circulated and are in stock. The price of the latter will logically be lower than the new ones.

We frequently have opportunities to buy larger quantities of gold at very attractive prices. In such cases, we send an e-mail to our customers, asking them to be particularly responsive. If you're thinking of buying yellow metal in the near future, we suggest that you join our mailing list by sending us an e-mail to let us know that you'd like to be on it, and to let us know what you might be interested in.

A safe investment in these difficult times, a reliable and discreet partner and the certainty of the best market price. So many reasons to get in touch with Caraor![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
