They can be exchanged in any country, usually at values close to the spot price of gold. Therefore, Tavex offers its customers an affordable, flexible way to hedge against inflation and to save for the future.
Our partners are listed below. We’ve provided a summary of how they become the most well-known refiners and miners in the investment gold industry.
The Royal Mint has grown throughout the years to become a sophisticated producer that is now a government-owned corporation. The Royal Mint has grown with the United Kingdom over the course of its 1,100-year existence, through wars and political upheavals, social and economic breakthroughs, and technical advancements.
It’s challenging to ask for a better venue to start a precious metals savings program or diversify your investment portfolio than The Royal Mint. Ask for a consultation with Tavex AB gold representative.
Thousands of investors throughout the world trust The Royal Mint, which offers gold, silver, and platinum bullions that are approved by Her Majesty, The Queen. The Royal Mint also provides a variety of precious metals savings plans to fit all stages of life, from accumulating gold security for a kid to planning for a golden retirement.
Founded in 1961, Valcambi is the largest Swiss refinery in terms of the volume of gold processed. It processed 1,200 tons of gold in 2020, which is 50% more than the second spot when ranking by volume of gold processing.
Valcambi gold bullions are among the most well-known and sought-after gold bullions in the world. Valcambi’s inventory also contains a wide range of gold bars, coins, and medallions.
Valcambi is also a social relations pioneer. The refinery has created a range of green gold goods in addition to its usual gold products. Green gold is mined and distributed exclusively from mines that adhere to the strictest environmental and worker safety requirements.
PAMP is another Swiss refinery whose products are offered by Tavex AB in Sweden. The annual production capacity is 450 tons of gold and 600 tons of silver. PAMP remains one of the world’s leading manufacturers of investment gold since Switzerland refines between 65 and 75 percent of the world’s gold.
One of the most distinguishing characteristics of gold bullions produced by a renowned refinery or mint is their quality of work. PAMP is an innovative company, being the first to introduce the production of ingots engraved with the effigy of famous mythological or historical figures. It is, therefore, no surprise that its products are popular around the world.
Perhaps the most popular gold bullion PAMP bears the image of the goddess of prosperity Fortuna, after which it received its name. The bullion is the first investment bullion in the world to feature a work of art and has a gold purity of 99.99 percent.
In 2015, PAMP became the first refinery in the world to acquire the Gold Certificate of Responsibility from the London Bullion Market Association. The paper verifies that the company’s operations do not contribute to global wars, human rights violations, or support terrorist groups and that it adheres to high environmental, social, and managerial standards.
The Perth Mint was established in 1899 as a branch of the Royal Mint of the United Kingdom.
The Australian Mint was the first in the world to acquire “purest gold” in 1957. The organization created a gold plate that was 99.9999 percent pure. The achievement was so outstanding that other organizations, such as the Royal Mint of the United Kingdom, ordered numerous duplicates to compare with their own gold coins.
The Australian Mint, like the other refineries on the list, offers a diverse range of collectible gold and silver goods. The series of cyclical investment gold bullion coins is one of them. The animal to whom the Chinese Lunar calendar year is devoted is depicted in their design, which changes every year.
Over the years, Perth Mint collectible coins have won scores of honors for their design. Australian dollars are also produced in the mint.
The Austrian Mint, formerly known as Münze Österreich, is the oldest mint with which Tavex operates. The history of minting may be traced back to Richard the Lionheart, who was imprisoned by Duke Leopold V for a year. The English monarch paid a ransom of 12 tons of silver in 1194, and the duke used the money to manufacture Vienna’s first coins.
The mint established an engraving academy in the first part of the 18th century, which still operates today, and the expertise of engravers is reflected in the coins created here. The Vienna Philharmonic gold bullion coin is the most popular. It was released in 1989 and quickly received the Coin News award for the finest gold coin due to its outstanding design. It is also the first legal money in Austria, with a 99.99 percent pure gold content.
This bullion has a lengthy list of rewards attached to it. It was the best-selling gold coin in the world in 1992. Since then, the bullion has won the championship three times more. The Vienna Philharmonic is
also available as a silver coin (from 2008) and a platinum coin due to its enormous popularity (since 2016).
Aside from the Vienna Philharmonic, the Austrian Mint, which is one of the world’s most prominent refineries, produces a diverse range of collectible bullions, coins, and even jewelry. The gold coins of the Austrian Duchy, which contain the likeness of Emperor Franz Joseph, are among them. It is also the sole entity that creates Austrian money since 1988.
Rand Refinery Limited was established as a private organization on November 27, 1920, using funds raised from gold mining companies that were members of the Chamber of Mines.
The South African Mint Company is the only company permitted by law to produce legal tender coins in South Africa, including the world-famous Krugerrand. Rand Refinery, the exclusive provider of bullion Krugerrands to key distributors both locally and globally, provides all of the gold used in the production of the coins.
Rand Refinery has been a big part of creating the World’s most famous bullion coin, South African Krugerrand. The Krugerrand Gold Coin was first minted in 1967 and since then over 52 million ounces of Krugerrand´s has been sold all over the World. It is the world´s most traded and trusted bullion coin.
The Krugerrand was created by the South African Chamber of Mines and is still manufactured by Rand Refinery and the SA Mint.
Reputation is essential in the gold investment sector. When a firm in the sector fails to deliver on its claims, it is likely to be shut down.
Gold has a specific density of 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter. Even with relatively simple experiments, the gold content of a coin or bullion can be determined. In addition, there are many more scientific ways to verify the amount of gold in bullions. In other words, their products are bought by millions of people every year. It is effortless to detect whether any of these refineries and mines are fraudulent.
Most of the companies on the list are owned by the central bank in that country. Therefore, it is hard to believe that such an institution could create fraudulent products.
The Swiss Central Bank does not own Valcambi or PAMP Refineries. In this situation, however, highly rigorous restrictions and thorough checks guarantee perfect peace of mind. It’s no surprise that refineries are required to stamp all gold products with the “Essayeur Fondeur” stamp. This mark verifies that the gold bars and coins have been subjected to an independent inspection by a qualified expert.
All the above-listed refineries and mines are part of the international markets. As such, they must meet the requirements of the relevant institutions managing the relevant markets. London merchants, for example, must adhere to the London Bullion Market Association’s guidelines. The group produces a list of reputable delivery businesses. The Austrian Mint is the only one missing, however, it is owned by the local central bank.
By owning physical gold, you are independent of third parties and institutions. There is also no need to worry about a possible transaction, as gold is traded freely and universally in the open market. Additionally, Precious metals can be sold back in all Tavex offices.
Owning gold on paper or digitally always comes with a third or even fourth party risk. However, physical gold you can feel and touch yourself, and you will always have it with you if necessary. Fundamentally the safest way to own gold is to own it physically by yourself.
