Secure gold storage
Bank vaults vs security companies vs home safes.
Secure storage is the weak point of many physical gold investors. At home, a high-security safe (certified EN 1143-1) is mandatory, but its presence is a risk in itself.
Bank Vaults: A traditional solution in Switzerland. Relatively cheap (CHF 100-300 per year), but does not protect against 'bank holidays' or total systemic blocking. Moreover, bank insurance is often capped for precious metals.
Private Specialized Vaults (e.g., Swiss Gold Safe): Located outside the banking system, these vaults offer 24/7 access and full insurance. They are the favorite choice for large-scale institutional or private investors.
