publicgoldbar.jpgGold acts as a reliable “store of value” because it fulfills the functions of money. It is portable and divisible. Its weight is a good measurement of a unit of value. It is indestructible, relatively scarce and cannot be “manufactured”. It is easily recognizable and acceptable as a form of payment.

It is not directly affected by the policies in any country and it cannot be repudiated or frozen, as in the case of assets.
