Platinum vs Gold: which to choose in Switzerland?

Platinum is naturally rarer than gold and was long priced above it. Today it often trades below, offering an opportunity for long-term investors. In Switzerland, platinum coins and bars are subject to 8.1% VAT.

Palladium use in industry

Over 80% of global palladium is used in catalytic converters for gasoline vehicles. It is one of the most volatile metals: its price can double or triple in a few years, as happened between 2016 and 2022. Swiss jewelers also use it as a white alloy metal.
