Trading Desk
Physical bullion, quoted to your requirements.
Gold, silver and platinum RFQs structured by product, quantity, documentation and completion route.
The desk supplies physical gold, silver and platinum bars against defined wholesale requirements rather than from a fixed price list. A requirement becomes a quotation once the metal, format, quantity, timing and physical completion route are stated; terms are priced as the prevailing metal reference plus a premium set by refinery, format, weight band and volume. There is no checkout and no published price, because the same bar quotes differently for a single unit and for a standing monthly volume.

Who the desk supplies
- Jewellers and manufacturers
- Recurring fabrication input where consistency of format matters more than opportunistic pricing. Requirements are usually standing monthly volumes in a defined purity and weight band, quoted differently from a single purchase.
- Bullion traders and dealers
- Wholesale lots for onward distribution, often brand-flexible where the assay and weight are met. Speed of confirmation and clarity on physical release tend to matter more than a marginal premium difference.
- Corporate buyers
- Treasury or balance-sheet allocations with documentation and governance requirements attached. Settlement route, invoicing and release evidence are typically defined before the metal discussion concludes.
- Family offices
- Longer-horizon physical holdings where format, custody arrangement and the ability to take or transfer release later carry more weight than entry timing.
What makes a requirement quotable
- A defined metal, purity and format
- Minted or cast changes the premium materially at the same fine weight, because fabrication cost per gram differs. A requirement that names an acceptable alternative alongside a first choice is usually filled faster.
- A quantity expressed in fine weight or units
- Total kilograms and unit count are not interchangeable: twenty one-kilogram cast bars and twenty kilograms in 100 g minted bars are different requirements with different premiums and different handling.
- A timing window
- Whether the requirement is immediate, dated, or a standing monthly volume changes how it is quoted. Recurring supply is structured differently from a one-off purchase.
- A physical completion route
- Dubai collection, controlled delivery or third-party custody. This is assessed separately from the metal and can determine which formats are practical.
