“Monetary Metals’ business model allows a portion of my gold holdings to generate a rate of return over a short period of time. It’s hard to beat that as an investment in a negative real interest rate world.”

“Monetary Metals allows companies to return to the relative stability of a gold standard and thereby mitigate exposure to the instability of political and speculative money. Their success so far is encouraging.”
Stefan Gleason

Frequently Asked Questions
How is Monetary Metals able to pay interest on gold and silver?
Our ability to pay interest on gold and silver deposits comes from connecting investors with businesses that use gold productively. We provide them Gold Financing, Simplified™.
What kind of businesses? Jewelers, mints, precious metals dealers, refiners, recyclers, mining companies. Basically any company that has physical gold or silver as inventory or work-in-progress.
Our lease financing eliminates the price risk present in traditional bank financing, and protects their margins (since they no longer have to hedge). They happily pay a fee to lease the gold & silver inventory required in their business. The fee they pay enables Monetary Metals to make interest payments on clients’ gold and silver.
Consider a simple example. Acme Inc. borrows $1,000,000 to buy $1,000,000 worth of gold. It makes 3% gross profit, meaning the finished goods sell for $1,030,000. However, during the manufacturing process, suppose the gold price drops 5%. The raw gold is now worth $950,000. The finished product with 3% markup is $978,500, and Acme loses $21,500.
To avoid the price risk, most gold businesses would sell (short) futures contracts. This solves the price risk problem, but it brings its own costs and risks, such as having to borrow additional cash for the margin on the futures contract and constant need to roll their short futures contracts.
Acme would benefit greatly from a gold lease. It simplifies their financing, eliminates price risk along with the need for hedging, and saves them money. They just need some gold, and they don’t want so many moving parts. In other words, possession of the gold without the problems of owning it. Gold Financing, Simplified™.
Monetary Metals® facilitates the matching of investors and businesses, with a fixed fee. Our vision is to create a transparent and open market, the Gold Yield Marketplace™.
Monetary Metals® performs its due diligence before offering a gold lease to investors. We work exclusively with companies that use gold productively–and have physical gold. We will NOT offer a gold lease that could be used for short selling or other derivative transactions. We work out the best type of lease to finance the business, and put together the terms of the deal.
We present the terms of the lease and the result of our due diligence for clients to review. Then it’s up to you. You have the right, but not the obligation, to participate. You can opt-out of any lease you don’t like for any reason. If you don’t opt-out, your gold will automatically be accepted into the lease. Once your gold is allocated into leases, you will start earning interest on your gold, paid monthly into your account.
What can I expect to earn on my gold? What’s the interest rate?
Historically, Monetary Metals’ leases have paid between 2.0 – 4.5% net annual to investors. The weighted average rate of return in our lease program currently hovers around 2.25%. In other words, 100oz earning 2.25% every year, will generate 2.25oz in gold income, annually. Gold bonds, which are securities, offer higher yields (such as 19% on our recent offering). Gold bonds are available to accredited investors only.
Can I earn interest on silver too?
Yes. We offer silver leases in addition to gold leases. Clients can open an account, hold a silver balance, and earn interest in silver in that account, in addition to holding and earning on gold.
Some clients have gold as an investment and silver as an investment. Take a look at a client statement showing both (with growing ounces!) here.
When and how is interest paid?
Most of our leases pay interest monthly, but some pay quarterly. This is disclosed to investors prior to committing to a deal.
Generally, interest is paid in kind (silver interest for silver leases, gold interest for gold leases) and is deposited directly into the client’s account. The interest payments are made in allocated gold and silver, which is vaulted and insured through our vault partners.
Clients receive monthly statements showing how much gold or silver they have earned over the previous period, year to date, and since inception.
You can view an actual client statement, here.
How do I open an account?
You can begin the preliminary steps online, here.
If you prefer to talk to a Monetary Metals team member, just schedule a call that suits your schedule.
What is required to open an account?
To open an account, you’ll need to:
- provide a photo ID if you are a US citizen; for non-US citizens, two copies of ID may be required
- complete a W-9 (or a W8BEN or W8BEN-E for foreign account holders)
- complete the account agreement and precious metals lease agreement
- fund the account with bullion or cash
How do I withdraw my metal from my account?
Clients can initiate a partial or full withdrawal request at any time by completing a one-page form. Metal can be sold for cash, redeemed for physical delivery, or shipped to a different storage account. Any metal in your account that is not actively deployed in a lease can be withdrawn immediately. While metal that is in a lease must wait until the lease matures before it can be withdrawn.
If the price of gold or silver goes up during the lease, do I still get the price gain?
Yes. You own the metal, whether it’s on lease or not.
If the dollar price of gold doubles, then the dollar value of your gold doubles as well. If the dollar price of gold falls, then the dollar value of your gold in the lease falls.
Monetary Metals is focused on one thing – enabling investors to grow their total ounces of gold. This provides a unique way for investors to express a long gold investment thesis, while earning income on that position for the duration of the investment.
Does Monetary Metals have insurance on my metal?
We require the depositories where we store the metals to have insurance, and also of each lessee who leases the metals.
As part of our due diligence process, we require the lessee to have Monetary Metals listed as loss payee on the insurance certificate.
We also have an additional policy through a leading global insurer based out of the UK that provides additional insurance coverage for our gold and silver leases.
Can a company sell or hypothecate my metal in a lease?
No.
The lease is to finance a company’s physical inventory. And although inventory is purchased and sold, the lessee must buy the replacement gold or silver first, to ensure that the full amount of gold on a Monetary Metals lease is present & secure at all times.
For example, there is a 1,000 oz gold lease and the dealer has 1,000 oz of coins in his inventory. His customer orders 50 oz of coins. The dealer buys 50 gold Eagles first, bringing total inventory up to 1,050 oz. Then he can fill the customer order and sell the coins. The balance of gold in inventory never falls below 1,000 oz.
