Offshore Gold & Bullion Storage

Why serious entrepreneurs use offshore gold & bullion storage

If your net worth is tied up in companies, real estate and financial markets, you’re exposed to a very specific cluster of risks:

• Bank and broker counterparty risk.
• Capital controls, bail-ins and “temporary” emergency measures.
• Currency debasement and inflation in your home system.
• Political decisions that can freeze accounts or restrict transfers overnight.
• Market correlations – when “diversified” assets all move down together.

Physical bullion, held correctly, is one of the few assets that carries no counterparty risk, has a 5,000+ year track record, and can sit outside your domestic banking system.

The goal is to:

• Hold a portion of your wealth in hard, unencumbered assets.
• Place those assets in stable jurisdictions with strong rule of law.
• Integrate metals into your trust, company and residency planning.

What an offshore gold & bullion strategy can do for you

When it’s done properly, an offshore bullion structure can:

• Reduce your dependence on any one banking system: Keep a slice of your net worth outside both your domestic banks and your primary currency.
• Add a non-correlated, real-asset layer: Balance exposure to equities and real estate with something that behaves differently in stress scenarios.
• Provide a discreet, movable store of value: Properly documented bullion can be liquidated or used as collateral without relying on a single regulator or bank.
• Support asset protection and succession plans: Sit within a trust or holding structure so bullion is protected from personal claims and passed on cleanly.
• Offer optionality in “tail risk” scenarios: Bullion remains one of the few assets that functions in extreme regimes of capital controls.

A Global Toolkit - Not “buy some gold and ship it abroad”

True offshore bullion planning is a combination of jurisdiction, vaulting provider, legal wrapper, and documentation.

Tier-1 bullion jurisdictions

We focus on stable, rule-of-law countries with mature precious metals markets, professional vaulting infrastructure, and clear property rights.

Allocated & segregated storage

Fully allocated bars and coins held in your name (or your structure’s name), segregated from the vault’s balance sheet. No unallocated “paper gold.”

Professional vault operators

Non-bank vaults specializing in high-net-worth clients, featuring independent audits, insurance, clear inventory reporting, and robust physical security.

Legal structures and wrappers

Trusts, foundations, or holding companies that own the bullion on your behalf. This makes ownership unambiguous for both asset protection and tax reporting.

Note: We do not sell gold or run a vault. We design the ownership and jurisdictional architecture around your bullion allocation.

Typical Strategies We Design

1. Core offshore bullion reserve

For families wanting a long-term reserve outside their home system. We define an appropriate allocation, select the jurisdictions, and establish the holding structure.

2. Bullion within a trust or family wealth platform

Integrate bullion into letters of wishes and investment policy statements. We clarify who can authorize sales and how bullion is treated during distributions.

3. Geographic and currency diversification through metals

Hold bullion in a jurisdiction different from your primary residence and banking center to reduce correlated risk.

4. Post-exit hard asset allocation

For founders post-liquidity. We carve out a disciplined slice of proceeds for hard assets, integrating them into your wider family office framework.

5. Regular accumulation plan

Design a rule-based schedule for building an offshore bullion position over time, standardizing products to keep storage and audits simple.

How Our Process Works

Step 1 - Diagnostic & objectives

We deep-dive on your current asset mix, residency, and citizenship. We identify if bullion is solving a real problem like concentration or counterparty risk.

Step 2 - Strategy & structure design

We design an Offshore Gold & Bullion Plan setting out the target allocation, recommended jurisdictions, and the holding structure (personal, company, or trust).

Step 3 - Implementation & coordination

We coordinate account opening with vault providers, align contracts for insurance and audit rights, and integrate bullion accounts into your existing banking flows.

Step 4 - Ongoing governance & review

We periodically review your allocation, support you in any changes of jurisdiction, and monitor geopolitical developments that impact your holdings.

Who This Is For

• Entrepreneurs and investors whose wealth is concentrated in financial assets.
• Families wanting a cross-border, hard-asset reserve.
• Clients with existing offshore structures wanting to add bullion coherently.
• Founders post-exit translating paper wealth into solid, unleveraged assets.

Note: We focus on strategies that are robust, documented and compatible with serious banks and trustees. We do not assist with hiding assets or undeclared wealth.

Why Work With Us (rather than a bullion dealer)?

• Structure-first, not product-first: Dealers sell metal; we design the jurisdiction and ownership structure that fits your wider plan.
• Integrated approach: We work at the intersection of asset protection, tax residency, and private banking.
• Independent and provider-agnostic: We are not tied to a single vault or dealer, allowing us to compare the best options for you.
• Focus on documentation: Properly structured bullion must be auditable. We design for that reality, not for secrecy fantasies.
• Long-term partnership: Bullion is a multi-decade allocation. We stay involved as your wealth and residency evolve.
