Adams Bullion is proud to assist our clients in diversifying their SMSF holdings with physical precious metals. Below you will find useful information on how to do so with us.
Introduction to Gold and Silver in your SMSF
As the main vehicle for saving and investing for the vast majority of Australians, superannuation is incredibly important with most considering it to be their sole means of support in their retirement.
Given this diversification of superannuation assets is critical, especially given the current economic and financial state of the world.
Balancing your portfolio through diversification of assets that are not correlated to each other is the basis of portfolio theory, with the goal of reducing the overall risk of a portfolio. Shares and property are known to be correlated (they move upwards together and crash together too), whereas gold is known as a “safe haven” asset, meaning that people flock towards it in times of fear, sending the price upwards. It is historically uncorrelated to other asset classes, as is shown in the table showing stock market returns versus gold returns during stock market crashes in our Investor Centre.
By allocating a percentage of your Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF) into physical precious metals, you are balancing your portfolio (and its risk), whilst reducing counterparty and systemic risk as well.
