Yes. This is necessary to comply with regulatory requirements, as each company performs a specific function.

At the same time, this structure represents an additional layer of security, since maintaining operational independence strengthens safety, solidity, and professional best practices.

Thanks to our exclusive access to an LBMA-accredited producer, we offer our clients the most secure custody service available: their gold is stored directly within the refinery’s own facilities.

This guarantees security, traceability, and liquidity, as no third party handles our clients’ gold.

All purchases made by our clients involve allocated physical gold.

This means you are the sole owner of the bars, which are segregated from those of other clients, as well as from the balance sheets of THE REAL MONEY and the custody company.

Through our client area, you may request partial or full sales, as well as shipment of your gold to your home at any time, with maximum convenience.

Thanks to our experience and market position, we facilitate and guarantee our clients direct access to LBMA monetary gold from the producer, without intermediaries and without repurchasing gold from other clients.

Professionally, three types of gold are distinguished:

1. Industrial gold
   Used for jewelry, electronic components, etc. Any refinery can produce it.
2. “Paper” gold
   Financial contracts speculating on the price of gold, but not representing the purchase of allocated physical bullion.
3. Investment or monetary gold
   These are the bars purchased by central banks. They must meet strict manufacturing and purity standards and possess specific characteristics, such as VAT exemption, as they are treated similarly to currency within the IMF’s currency basket (International Monetary Fund).

We exclusively commercialize this category.

In addition to a minimum purity of 995/1000, each bar must display:

• Purity
• Refinery name
• A unique reference number ensuring traceability
• Bar weight

For coins to qualify as investment gold, they must:

• Have a purity of at least 900/1000
• Have been minted after 1800
• Be or have been legal tender in their country of origin
• Be sold at a price not exceeding 80% above the value of the gold content

Although the minimum purity is 995/1000, 999.9/1000 bars exist — and these are the only ones commercialized by THE REAL MONEY.

They represent the highest level of purity and are produced by only a few LBMA-accredited refineries (London Bullion Market Association).

The LBMA (London Bullion Market Association) is the most important global association of precious metals professionals.

Its main functions include:

• Setting the global gold price twice daily
• Supervising the market to ensure proper functioning and transparency

Only a limited number of refineries hold LBMA accreditation to produce “Good Delivery” bars with 999.9/1000 purity.

At THE REAL MONEY, we have agreements that guarantee exclusive commercialization of this type of bullion.

Investment gold is VAT exempt, while other precious metals are subject to VAT.

From a tax perspective:

• Individuals: Taxed as capital gains at the time of sale (purchase invoice versus sale invoice).
• Legal entities: As a corporate asset, it falls under corporate tax and must be declared annually.

Investment gold is not included in one’s portfolio to generate income or dividends, but to protect wealth against inflation and volatility in other asset classes.

Historically, it has preserved purchasing power: when currencies (euro, dollar, pound, etc.) depreciate, more currency units are required to purchase the same amount of gold.

As a market-traded asset, it may experience short-term price corrections, with possible temporary capital losses.

At THE REAL MONEY, we provide a personal advisor to guide you in every situation.

Certainly. This is the preferred method for most of our clients, as it allows meetings to be scheduled at the most convenient time without the need to travel.

Simply request a meeting and our customer service team will arrange an appointment with one of our advisors.
