Switzerland is the safest place in the world to store precious metals, not only because protecting foreign assets is an integral part of the country’s economy, but also because of its neutrality as a sanctuary throughout its history.

Switzerland is a politically stable and independent country, and it has always adopted neutral positions in times of war. Each canton, or region, has its own constitution, parliament, government and tribunals. Swiss citizens prize their independence and do not want the government interfering in their affairs. The Swiss economy is one of the most prosperous and developed in the world, notably due to a reliable private banking sector.

Switzerland has a long tradition of savings in gold and has excellent secure infrastructures. It should also be noted that Switzerland refines 70% of the world’s gold, which makes it a major hub for gold refining and trading.
