With physical gold, trust matters. Unlike paper products, allocated gold should be verifiable. Independent checks are how that is done.
Independent checks are carried out by parties other than the person keeping the records, which reduces the risk of errors or self-certification.
Full Reconciliation of Assets
In a stock check, vault inventory is reconciled against the records of client holdings. That typically includes:
- Serial numbers of gold bars
- Bar weights
- Client-specific ownership alignment
The result is a reconciliation confirming that the metal recorded for clients is held in the vault.
Frequency and Transparency
Stock checks are carried out periodically, as agreed with our vaulting partner. Ask our team about the verification documents available to you.
You can also see the bar serial numbers your holding is recorded against in your account at any time.
Our Vaulting Partner
EONA stores all client metal with Loomis International in Dubai, an independent vault operator that also works with banks and other financial institutions. Your holding is recorded in the same way whether you buy 1 gram or much more.
Why Checks Matter
Independent checks help to detect and prevent:
- Counterparty mismanagement
- Ledger inconsistencies
- Fraudulent claims of ownership
- Operational errors in vault handling
Independent checks are one of the clearest differences between allocated ownership of physical metal and a general promise from a provider.
