Roch Bullions Secure Storage
Owning gold is a form of financial insurance, so you need to possess it in the safest way possible in order to reduce counterparty risk. That’s why Roch Bullions Secure Storage offers an investment solution that eliminates any exposure to the risks associated with having intermediaries between investors and their precious metals, either at the level of ownership (which is direct) or storage (a storage account is opened in your name).

Our storage solution
Secure storage outside of the banking system
Storage outside of the banking system eliminates the risks of counter-party default (bankruptcy), bank account confiscations (bail-ins) and government confiscation, and permits access to one’s gold/silver quickly in the event of a temporary bank closure.
Your precious metals are protected by the strictest security rules and are insured against all risks, according to their value at the LBMA price, via an insurance contract subscribed by Malca-Amit with Lloyd’s of London.
Vaults are located in free-trade zones so no duties or taxes apply. Investments in physical silver are exempt from VAT
Ownership and storage in your name
Upon opening the own-name storage account, each client signs a direct contract with us, we will then issue a certificate specifying his name and precious metals serial numbers.
This document constitutes the proof that the client stores in his own name, but also that his identity is known to our storage firm.
Direct access
All our clients have direct and personal access to the vault, where they can show up by setting up an appointment 48 hours in advance, to inspect or withdraw their precious metals. Roch Bullions personnel and facilities provide a secure, discreet, neutral and comfortable environment.
Buyback of stored metals
Hep trast security guarantees the liquidity of your investment by buying back products stored in Roch Bullions secured vaults. Buyback process is executed within calculated business days. Your precious metals are kept in LBMA-approved storage facilities, so they never leave the professional logistics chain, retaining their maximum resale value.
Understanding the importance of the storage certificate in your name and its legal value
All our clients hold and store their precious metals in their own name (signature of a direct contract with the storage company, opening of a nominative storage account, issuance of a storage certificate specifying the identity of the client and the serial numbers of his products).Your assets are protected, as they do not appear at any time on the balance sheet of our company nor of our storage partner.
The storage certificate in your name is an ownership title. This document proves that you are the legal owner of the precious metals.
When you hold gold through a bank or other service provider, and you do not have an ownership title mentioning your name and your bars’ serial numbers, it is important to ask yourself the following question: if a document does not clearly prove that I am the direct owner of my gold, on which company’s balance sheet does it appear? Who has real and legal possession of it?
