The gold standard for investment
Gold is one of history’s most reliable investment assets, with high demand and limited supply.
Industry demand
Gold’s applications include jewellery, aerospace and consumer electronics.
Investment demand
Central banks traditionally hold around 20% of all gold ever mined and are increasing their reserves significantly to mitigate global economic and geopolitical uncertainty.
Limited supply
All the gold ever mined could fit into a cube 22m3 which is around the size of 3.4 Olympic swimming pools!

Gold in Global Markets
Gold has, at times, shown different price movements compared to asset classes such as equities and bonds. Over certain periods, its performance has diverged from traditional markets.
Price movements in gold are influenced by a range of factors, including broader market conditions and investor activity. The chart shows historical price movements for general informational purposes.
Gold as a hedge for Inflation
Gold is sometimes considered by investors during periods of inflation or currency weakness, as its price has, at times, behaved differently to other assets.
It is widely held by a range of participants, including individuals, institutions and central banks, often as part of a broader portfolio approach.
During periods of economic or market stress, some investors may increase their allocation to gold.
