Where do I store my gold safely?
Gold bars have an immense value today – especially in larger denominations. Every gold investor is therefore faced with the question: Where do I store my gold safely? Unfortunately, experience shows that home safes are often not the most suitable place for storing valuables. Just remember that every safe, no matter how secure, is opened by the owner to avert threatened violence in certain situations. Thieves also know exactly where to look for valuables in the household.
You should therefore take the professional approach when it comes to storing your gold bars. We, Hartmann & Benz GmbH, offer you the safekeeping of your gold in the most modern high-security wings and vaults in Hong Kong and Dubai as well as in Switzerland. We are not the only ones who use these highly secure storage facilities. Professional institutional investors from all over the world also use them.
Reminder: don’t depend on a bank for storage
A particular advantage of these storage facilities is that your gold is stored outside the banking system. It has happened more than once that banks close for months during financial turmoil. During this time you often cannot access your gold stored in bank safe deposit boxes.
Therefore, you are welcome to use our service and store your gold really independently and thus absolutely safely. This applies both to the gold that you save for yourself, your children and grandchildren in the course of gold savings plans, and to institutional clients who want to store large gold holdings. But of course, private individuals who invest their assets in gold with us in an inflation-protected manner can also make use of our storage know-how.

Storage hotspot Switzerland – don’t feel like paying VAT?
When you buy the precious metals silver, palladium and platinum, you normally have to pay a considerable amount of VAT, which in Germany is 19% for silver bars, for example. You can avoid this by using our transit warehouse where you can store all precious metals – including gold – without having to pay the high VAT rates. This procedure is, of course, completely legal.
Switzerland offers precious metal investors much more than that! You can choose between individual storage in bonded warehouses (so-called segregated storage) or in so-called open bonded warehouses for the storage of your precious metal holdings. Both storage facilities are, of course, private high-security storage facilities that our clients can use.
Hartmann & Benz: We ensure the security of your precious metal holdings!
In order to really offer you the highest level of security, Hartmann & Benz goes one step further. In cooperation with our insurance partner, we offer you a complete insurance policy that even compensates for damage caused by water and fire, but also uncompromisingly compensates for all losses incurred in the event of fraud, robbery and theft.
