Short-Term Gold Investment FAQ

1. What is a 1 gram gold bar?

A 1 gram gold bar is a small, easily tradable unit of gold, ideal for those who prefer smaller investments or those starting with minimal capital. Its price fluctuates with the market value of gold.

2. How much is a 10 oz gold bar worth?

A 10 oz gold bar typically offers a lower premium per ounce compared to smaller bars. The price depends on the current gold market rate.

3. What is the price of a 24k gold bar?

24k gold bars are made from pure gold and are highly sought after. Their price is determined by the global market price of gold at the time of purchase.

4. How do I invest in gold coins?

Gold coins, such as sovereigns or bullion coins, are a popular choice for gold investment due to their recognisability and liquidity. The price of a gold coin depends on its weight, rarity, and gold content.

Gold Storage

For short-term gold holdings, we carefully monitor market fluctuations. Once your gold is refined at our trusted facilities—either at the Royal Mint in the UK, Baird & Co., or Al Etihad in the UAE—it is either sold immediately to a buyer or stored until the optimal market conditions are met. We offer secure storage options at the best gold vaults for private storage by European countries to ensure your investment remains protected during this period.

LONG-TERM

Bulk Investment Opportunities

HOW IT WORKS

For investors focused on long-term value, our bulk purchasing option allows secure acquisition of significant quantities of gold. We source from reputable partners like Asanko Gold, AngloGold Ashanti, and Newmont Mining Ghana. The gold is acquired in dore bars (minimum 85% purity) and transported to leading refineries such as Baird & Co. and The Royal Mint Refinery in the UK, or Al Etihad Refinery in Dubai. The refining process upgrades the purity to 99.5%, meeting investment-grade standards and enhancing market value. This strategy offers the potential for long-term appreciation, with flexible exit points aligned to market conditions.

Investment Structure via Cyprus SPV:

By utilising a Cyprus-based SPV, we offer investors key benefits, including:

Tax Efficiency:
- Corporate tax rate at 12.5%, one of the lowest in the EU.
- Exemption from capital gains tax on gold sales.
- VAT exemptions, enhancing the net returns on gold transactions.
Legal Security:
- The SPV framework ensures all transactions, from procurement to liquidation, are legally protected under Cyprus jurisdiction.
- Gold assets are held securely, with transparent management of funds via our Cyprus-based escrow service, providing confidence and security for our investors.

Tax Efficiency and Legal Protection: The use of a Cyprus-based SPV (Special Purpose Vehicle) structure provides tax-efficient returns for investors, offering favorable tax treatment that can enhance the overall returns on the investment. Cyprus' legal framework also offers strong protections, ensuring that investor interests are safeguarded under a transparent and secure regulatory environment. The SPV structure maximises the opportunity for investors to benefit from strategic sourcing, refining, and storage, with legal protections that give them confidence in their investment.

What is a Gold Dore Bar?

A gold dore bar is a semi-pure alloy of gold and other metals, typically produced at a mine site or by small-scale miners as a preliminary step in the gold refining process. Dore bars generally contain between 80% to 90% pure gold, with the remaining percentage made up of other metals such as silver, copper, and other impurities.

Key Characteristics:

Composition: Dore bars are typically 85% pure gold, with the remaining 15% consisting of silver, copper, and trace impurities.
Weight: They can vary in size, but common weights range from 5 kg (160 oz) to 20 kg (approximately 640 oz).
Appearance: They have a dull, rough texture and a yellowish-brown colour due to the presence of impurities.

Refining Process

The gold refining process begins with the shipment of dore bars from the mining site to one of our trusted refining partners: Baird & Co. in London, The Royal Mint Refinery, or Al Etihad Refinery in Dubai. Here’s an overview of how the refining process unfolds:

1. Shipment and Security:

The dore bars, typically with a purity of 85%, are securely transported from the mining site to the chosen refinery.
We work with reputable logistics providers to ensure the gold is safely delivered, with all shipments insured and tracked throughout the journey.

2. Initial Assay:

Upon arrival, the refinery conducts an initial assay to verify the gold content and weight of the dore bars.
This step determines the exact purity and composition, establishing the baseline for the refining process.

3. Purification Process:

The dore bars are melted down to separate gold from other metals such as silver, copper, and impurities.
Using techniques like electrolysis or the Miller process, the refinery increases the gold’s purity level to 99.99%, classified as investment-grade or "four nines" pure gold.

4. Final Assay and Certification:

A final assay is performed to confirm the refined gold meets the 99.99% purity standard.
The refinery then issues a certificate of purity, verifying the gold’s quality in line with global investment standards.

5. Production of Investment-Grade Gold Bars:

The refined gold is cast into standard bars suitable for investment, typically in sizes like 1 kg (32.15 oz) or 100 grams, catering to investor requirements.

6. Yield from Refining:

When refining 1,000 oz of dore bars with an 85% gold content, the total weight calculation assumes the dore bar’s initial gold content matches the refined outcome, effectively resulting in 1,000 oz of 99.99% pure gold.

7. Trusted Refining Partners:

Baird & Co. in London and The Royal Mint Refinery are renowned for stringent quality control, both certified by the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA).
For certain transactions, we utilize Al Etihad Refinery in Dubai, chosen for its efficient processing capabilities and strategic location near key gold markets in the Middle East.

Outcome:

The final result is 99.99% pure gold, ready for sale or investment, meeting the exacting standards required for bullion products. This meticulous refining process maximizes the value of the gold, providing our investors with a premium product that aligns with market demands.

Investment Returns and Financial Breakdown

Assuming a similar rate of appreciation from 2023 to 2024:

Projected 2025 Spot Price: If gold increases by 65.6% again, the estimated price could be £4,328 per ounce.
Potential Sale Value (1,000 ounces): £4,328 × 1,000 ounces = £4,328,000.
Profit Calculation:
- Gross Profit: £4,328,000 - £1,823,000 = £2,505,000.
- Management Fee (20%): £2,505,000 × 0.20 = £502,000*.
- Net Investor Profit: £2,505,000 - £502,000 = £2,003,000.

Exit Strategy: Flexibility and Liquidity for Investors

Kensington Crescent’s gold investment opportunity offers an adaptable exit strategy, providing investors with various options to access their returns with flexibility and liquidity. This ensures that investors can tailor their exit to their individual financial goals and market conditions, while still benefiting from a secure and transparent investment structure.

First Exit Opportunity: The first opportunity for investors to exit the investment is available 6 months after the anniversary of their initial investment. This early exit window offers investors the ability to liquidate their positions if they wish to realize their returns sooner, providing a balanced approach to both short-term and long-term investors.
Subsequent Exits: Once the initial exit window has passed, investors can choose to exit their positions on a quarterly or monthly basis. This flexibility ensures that investors have the option to manage their investment horizons based on market conditions, personal financial needs, or changing investment goals. The regular exit opportunities are designed to provide liquidity while maintaining the value and stability of the investment portfolio.
Re-assaying and Physical Withdrawal: For investors wishing to take physical possession of their gold, re-assaying is available. Reassaying allows for the gold to be revalued, ensuring the investor receives the current market price based on its quality and weight at the time of reassaying. The cost of re-assaying typically ranges between £2,000 to £10,000, depending on the volume and type of gold, and can take approximately 4 to 6 weeks to complete.

It is important to note that fluctuations in gold prices may impact the final sale price of the gold during this period, so the investor should be mindful of potential price volatility during the reassaying and physical withdrawal process.

Exit Strategy Flexibility: Kensington Crescent's exit strategy offers maximum flexibility, accommodating a wide range of investor preferences. Whether an investor is looking to exit early or over a longer term, the availability of both quarterly and monthly exit options ensures that capital can be accessed as needed. The re-assaying option also provides investors with a tangible exit route, allowing them to take possession of the physical gold if desired.

Additionally, this flexible approach aligns with the broader investment strategy, ensuring that investors can capitalize on gold's long-term price appreciation while managing their exposure to market volatility.

Long-Term Gold Investment FAQs

24k gold bars, being 99.9% pure, are ideal for long-term investment due to their value retention and ease of resale in global markets.
