Benefits of Gold

Historically, during periods of political uncertainty, cross border trade tensions and high inflationary and deflationary pressures investors have chosen gold as their preferred safe haven. Investors are also more likely to elect to invest in gold in anticipation of poor retail sector data and a weakening economy. Gold has always been a very popular asset for investors, in particular in Asian countries where gold is traditionally tied to prestige and wealth. Gold today is still a crucial part of the global economy. You only need to look as far as the balance sheet of major reserve and central banks to understand its importance. In an increasingly complicated investment environment, investors are looking at simple products that they understand, and often gold is used as a way of diversifying a portfolio.

Unlike paper currency, coins or other assets, gold has maintained its value throughout the ages. People see gold as a way to pass on and preserve their wealth from one generation to the next.

Gold should be an important part of a diversified investment portfolio because its price increases in response to events that cause the value of paper investments, such as stocks and bonds, to decline. Although the price of gold can be volatile in the short term, it has always maintained its value over the long term. Through the years, it has served as a hedge against inflation and the erosion of major currencies, and thus is an investment well worth considering.
