PROTECTION AGAINST INFLATION

Long-term stable purchasing power

Gold and Silver are currencies not backed by debt unlike all major “paper money” currencies and can therefore act as insurance against inflation and loss of purchasing power – thus protecting your wealth. The chart below compares the purchasing power of gold, silver and the U.S. dollar. Although there have been considerable fluctuations in the value of gold and silver over this time, measured in terms of their purchasing power, there has been no long-term depreciation in value over the decades. Mounting government debt in the U.S. and the country’s chronic trade deficits are increasing the pressure on the U.S. dollar. The result could potentially be a dramatic flight into gold and silver as more and more investors seek safety.

Gold as an investment

Over 7,000 years of tradition

Gold discoveries date back to the year 5,000 BC. Since then, gold has had a place in the value- and currency-system of human kind. Gold represents wealth, value and safety. Central banks as well as investors hold gold to protect their assets.

 








The gold reserves worldwide

At a glance

All the gold that has ever been mined (approximately 165,000 tons) would result in a cube with an edge length of only 20 meters. The annual production is now around 2,600 tons – decreasing annually.

The usage

Of the valuable precious metal

About 85 percent of today's gold production is used to make jewelry and 12 percent is used in industry (electronics, medicine, optics). The remaining 3 percent ends up in the vaults of the banks.

THE GOLD PRODUCTION

Becomes more complex and expensive

Gold can not be manufactured artificially. And most of the available resources are in the deepest mines in the world, such as the Witwatersrand gold field in South Africa, at nearly 4,000 m deep. The mining therefore is only economical at very high gold prices.

GOLD AS A STABILIZER

During an economic crisis

Especially in uncertain times, gold could increase in value. The chart below shows a comparison of high monthly losses of stocks (MSCI World Index) and the development of the price of gold in the same month.

"Gold still represents the ultimate form of
payment in the world …
In extremis, fiat [paper] money is accepted
by nobody and gold is always accepted."
