The love of gold runs through our veins just as it runs through the quartz veins of Otago schist. Driven by rapid rising inflation, higher interest rates, and unexpected geopolitical risk gold is once again king of the hill.

Uncertainty in the US banking system, Gold once again is amongst the best performing assets, amidst significant weakness in both equity and bond markets. In a period marked by increased economic uncertainty and increased volatility, gold and silver are again proving a reliable source of diversification and wealth preservation.

“Gold has historically performed well amid high inflation,” says Jerome Concisom, CEO of Commonwealth Vault Christchurch.

“In years when inflation has been higher than 3 percent, gold’s price increased on average 14 percent.

Commonwealth Vault is delighted to help anyone who is interested in purchasing gold and silver products, with a good range to choose from. The company also offers an extensive range of safe deposit boxes for silver and gold. Our purchasers usually also store with us for complete peace of mind. Most people are not aware that household insurance generally does not cover gold storage at home. Purchase and storage with us is simple and safe” says Jerome.

Paris Mint coins are now available to purchase, right here in Christchurch at the Commonwealth Vault.
