Understanding AML Compliance in Bullion Trading

Precious metals are high-value, portable and easy to store, which makes them attractive to criminals. Strong anti-money-laundering (AML) controls are therefore essential to keep the bullion market clean and protect legitimate buyers and sellers.

Know your customer

Every new relationship starts with thorough identity checks. We verify the client, its beneficial owners and the source of funds before any trade is executed.

Ongoing monitoring

Compliance does not stop at onboarding. Our AML framework includes:

  1. Customer due diligence at onboarding and periodic reviews
  2. Transaction monitoring and full record keeping
  3. Reporting of suspicious activity to the relevant authorities
  4. Regular training so our team stays ahead of emerging risks

Compliance is not a cost of doing business. It is what makes the business possible.

Swiss and international standards

We operate in line with Swiss regulation and international AML standards, and we work only with banks and logistics partners that share the same commitment.

For our clients, that means every transaction is documented, transparent and fully defensible.
