Gold bars as a crisis-proof investment
Precious metals (gold and silver) in the form of coins and bars have been used as a means of exchange and payment for 4000 years. In all this time, they have not suffered any material loss of value or significance.
Today, gold bars made of fine gold are used as a financial investment that can be easily traded. Above all, they are regarded as a crisis-proof store of value. Modern gold coins and gold bars are stamped with the characteristics of weight in grams, fineness and the manufacturer. However, a nominal value is not specified, as is usual for gold coins and silver coins.
Argor-Heraeus is probably the most renowned Swiss precious metal processor and is primarily known as a manufacturer of gold bars. The quality of the gold, silver, platinum and palladium bars meets the highest international standards and the bars are LBMA-certified, which makes the gold bars tradable worldwide without restriction.
