Gold has always been in demand especially in countries such as India where gold jewellery is hugely popular, around October when the Indian wedding season peaks gold often sees its highest global demand. Other countries include China where storing gold bars for saving is a tradition.
Demand for gold has recently increased amongst investors who are beginning to see that gold is a great investment opportunity and should be a permanent part of their investment portfolios.
Here at Shires Gold we highly recommend that bullion should be an important part of your diversified investment portfolio. There are many reasons as to why however one of the strongest is its price which has been proven to rise rather than fall in response to events that often cause the value of stocks and bonds, to decrease therefore lowering any risk of loss of investment.
Although it is important to mention that the price of gold can fluctuate over short periods of time, it has always maintained its value long term often showing an increase making it well worth an investment.
Fairtrade Certified Gold is the world’s first independent ethical certification system for gold.
When you buy from Shires Gold you are making a real difference to the lives of the miners as well as their families & communities. Buying jewellery that features the Fairtrade Gold Stamp means you know that the small-scale and artisan miners were paid a fair price, helping them to have strong financial security.
The miners also receive an amount of money on top of this to invest in building the futures of their families and the community they live in, through a range of projects including education and medical care.
