Investment into gold bars or coins using personal investment or pension funds via a SIPP (Self Invested Personal Pension)

Physical Gold Ltd. offers clients the opportunity to directly own physical gold - a tangible asset with intrinsic value and a secure store of wealth providing additional security and balance within a portfolio. Gold is a real asset, not a paper asset or promise to pay in the future.

Why Invest

Diversification – historically gold has not been correlated to stock markets, property and other commonly held assets. When these assets do badly, gold performs well working like an insurance policy within your portfolio and offsetting any losses.

Demand – demand for gold is high, with central banks diversifying their liquid assets away from US dollars and into gold. The central banks of rapidly developing countries such as the BRIC countries of Brazil, Russia, India and China are net buyers of gold. In addition, as the middle classes of the India, China and Asia grow their purchasing power is increasing and they have a tradition of saving into physical gold.

Performance – as investors around the world have looked for safety, the price of gold has increased with prices rising over 300% since 2001.

Tax Efficiency – all purchases of gold bullion are VAT exempt in the UK. Gold bars are SIPP acceptable, providing up to 40% tax relief outside of a SIPP wrapper, UK gold coins such as Sovereigns and Brittanias are still technically considered to be legal tender and therefore are Capital Gains Tax free.
