Core risk management
Precious metals, including gold, silver, platinum and palladium, have low sensitivity to other markets, including equity, fixed income and other commodities. This makes them a potential core risk-management tool and a unique source of diversification versus risk assets. -
Portfolio efficiency
Historically, adding a precious-metals allocation to a stock-bond portfolio has increased portfolio efficiency. This means that these portfolios may experience reduced risk, while return may remain the same or increase compared to portfolios without precious metals allocations. -
A "true alternative"
Gold, silver, platinum and palladium are commodities, but they often act more like currencies. These precious metals comprise a distinct asset class versus other commodities and alternative investments and react to the market cycle differently. We believe that proper exposure to precious metals may offer investors a unique avenue to better diversified portfolios.

Risk warning - Investment involves risk. The value of investments, and the income from them, can go down as well as up and an investor may get back less than the amount invested. Past performance is not a guide to future results.
