Now then, now then. Caaaaam down, caaaam down!
Could we just have a bit of a reasoned debate about BV for a moment.
Is there something in this allocated, insured physical gold holding in Zurich that I'm not getting?
If BV go bankrupt, I still own my gold (although it might take a little while to get hold of it). My gold is not an asset of BV.
If Viamat go bankrupt, I still own my gold (although it also might take a while to get hold of it). The gold in its vaults is not an asset of Viamat.
I'm noticing an increasing number of comments about "electronic gold" or "paper gold". Can anyone convincingly explain that the service BV offers falls into either of these categories? Or am I going to have to fly to Zurich and see the contents of the Viamat vault for myself? In short, does anyone have any evidence that BV does not do exactly what they say they do i.e. hold physical gold securely on behalf of the rightful and legal owners?
