AmsterdamGold facilitates all aspects of the trade in, and safekeeping of, precious metals. The company was set up in 2008 and in a few short years became market leader, tapping into a vast reservoir of unmet demand.
AmsterdamGold has since moved its business to a tightly secured area of Schiphol Airport, Europe’s second-largest airline hub and, as such, an ideal place for traders and investors to meet and conduct their business. The company maintains an onsite storage facility and due to its location inside the heavily guarded customs area, AmsterdamGold is the only precious metals dealer in The Netherlands able to deliver silver and platinum tax free.
AmsterdamGold has succeeded in simplifying the buying and selling of physical gold and other precious metals. The company also serves retail investors who seek shelter from market volatility by moving their assets into gold. Financial services providers are notoriously reluctant – or simply refuse – to deal with precious metals whilst others demand hefty commissions and only accept large volumes.
By keeping all aspects of the trade in precious metals under a single, and secure, roof, AmsterdamGold has been able to corner the market. The company is fully licensed by the Dutch Financial Market Authority (AFM) and is recognised as an authorised economic operator (AEO) by the country’s customs service.
The CFI.co judging panel notes that AmsterdamGold has identified and filled a void in the market. The judges agree that investors are often denied the option to invest in physical gold and other precious metals. AmsterdamGold offers a range of easy to implement – and cost effective – solutions. The judging panel commends AmsterdamGold on its achievements and declares the company, a previous winner, recipient of the 2018 Best Precious Metals Investment Advisory Team Europe Award.
