Your gold was already in
the vault when you
bought it so no shipment
of bullion is required to
settle your purchase.
You can only offer your
money to buy gold when
you have wired funds
into the BullionVault
client account. In the
same way sellers on
BullionVault are only
allowed to offer gold
when it is already
safely secured in the
vault.

This dramatically
reduces the settlement
cost and is a key
contributor to the very
low trading charges on
BullionVault. Delivery is
usually paid only once,
as bullion is originally
bought and delivered
into the vault by a
BullionVault purchase
on its own account.
Thereafter the bullion
may change owners
many times without
moving.

To the buyer willing to
accept British jurisdiction -
which has proven reliable
over 200 years - London is
a sound storage location
and invariably attractive
on price. In fact
BullionVault itself has to
pay a premium to bullion
merchants when buying
gold for delivery outside
London, and this is usually
passed on to customers in
the form of a slightly
higher price for bullion in
other vaults.

This means a top rate tax payer is now buying gold
for 60p in the pound, and paying no CGT on any
gains. And it gets better.
The snags with pensions were always. You often
couldn't contribute a lot into your fund when it was
affordable for you because there were annual limits
related to your earnings.
You had to buy an annuity, sometimes at very poor
rates. The annuity prevented you leaving your
accumulated capital to your heirs. But these snags
are eliminated in the reformed system. You can
now contribute under a much more flexible
lifetime limit. You can also defer your pension
until 75 and then draw it directly from your own
fund - without an annuity. Then you can leave
what's left to your heirs.

For the securities products which dominate pension
portfolios the management costs have steadily
escalated. So now the original tax benefit is often
taken back by accumulated charges.
For example, with a typical trust, after investing 60p
tax paid, and receiving 40p from the government,
the resulting pound is quickly diminished back to
60p by those high management charges. Then
when the remainder is distributed back to you when
you retire you end up paying tax on it, which is far
from efficient!
This has made many intelligent investors seek
direct control over their investments, via Self
Invested Pension Plans and low cost services like
BullionVault.
