Why silver?
Asset diversification is a sound strategy, and silver, in moderation, can round out any family portfolio. Silver, alongside gold, has been used as a means of payment for 6,000 years. Nowadays, it is also put to extensive practical use in industry. It is a strategic resource holding major investment potential.
Silver serves two primary purposes:
- although it is more volatile than gold, it has a well-established historical track record as a store of value
- its irreplaceable properties make it a strategic resource that is soaring in price as industrial demand grows
MAIN ADVANTAGES
- as a store of value, it shields savings from inflationary erosion and grows in value over the long term
- as a strategic resource, it holds major investment potential
- it is more affordable than gold
- at times of growth, silver tends to outperform gold
- as silver is highly liquid, it can be converted into fiat money within 24 hours
- silver is an anonymous asset, so there are no disclosure requirements when selling or donatingit
- silver is a scarce resource in limited supply that is facing a gradually diminishing mining output and increasing demand
