22 Reasons to own the asset class Hedge against devaluation of money the value of money is falling vs real assets Safe-haven or insurance assets in times of economic and geopolitical turmoil (Gold) Supply and demand fundamentals are favourable to ownership in the long term Historically uncorrelated with other asset classes, providing true diversification Economic sensitivity Silver and Platinum Costs of production continue to rise resulting in the need for higher prices University endowments are significantly weighted towards real assets Source: Castlestone Management. 22
23 Conclusion Conclusion 100% direct exposure to the physical commodity (gold, silver and platinum) Precious metals have historically shown to be an insurance when added to a diversified portfolio, acting as a safe-haven asset in times of economic and geopolitical turmoil Silver and platinum can be economically sensitive thus providing potential upside as the economic recovery continues With Global Financial stimulus packages still being implemented, inflation is inevitable. Gold can be your hedge against inflation and the devaluation of money. Incorporated in November 2003 for the reasons we have discussed Source: Bloomberg & Castlestone Management. 23
