Direct Ownership and Storage of Precious Metals
Outside the Banking System in Zurich and Singapore
Goldbroker.com is a precious metals investment company that enables investors to own and store gold directly in their own name (no mutualized ownership) in Zurich and Singapore.
Goldbroker's clients are not exposed to any counterparty risks.

So Goldbroker.com's storage partner knows the exact identity of each investor. Goldbroker.com doesn't store in the name of its clients; rather, Goldbroker's clients store personally. All investors have direct access to their gold and silver bars.
Goldbroker.com was launched in 2011 so that investors would avoid any counterparty risk when investing in physical gold and silver.
