Tara Gold AG sells physical gold bullion to high-net-worth individuals, family offices and companies, and holds it in custody for them. Fully allocated. Fully segregated. Title stays with you: your bars are held in safekeeping for you, in specialist Swiss gold vaults operated by an LBMA Full Member. Not a paper or digital claim, not a fund unit, not an entry on someone else’s balance sheet.
Specific bars, identified by serial number, weight and fineness. Not a paper or digital claim on unallocated or pooled assets.
Held on a sub-account for you alone, apart from Tara Gold AG’s own stock and from other clients’ holdings, in our custodian’s vaults in Switzerland.
A Swiss company under Swiss law, in the world’s principal centre for gold refining and storage.
Three securities
ISwitzerland
Political and monetary stability, and a legal system that recognises and protects private ownership of physical precious metals. The first security, because the other two rest on it.
IIThe metal
Individually identified, held in safekeeping for you, and yours in law. Not a claim on a pool, and not an asset on anyone else’s balance sheet.
IIIInformation
Client data is stored only in Switzerland. Sanctions and PEP screening runs through a Zurich-based provider that processes queries in the EU without storing them. Client documentation reaches us through a dedicated encrypted channel, never by email. This website is static: no application layer, no database, no login to compromise.
Enquiries
Enquiries are handled directly and in confidence by Mark O’Byrne and Oliver Krause. Mark O’Byrne, Managing Director and a member of the board, has more than 20 years in the precious metals market. He founded GoldCore, a precious metals dealer and custody provider, in Dublin in 2003 and led it until 2020.
Status
Tara Gold AG is in its start-up phase. We are preparing our affiliation with VQF, a self-regulatory organisation recognised by FINMA under the Swiss Anti-Money Laundering Act, and will open client accounts once that affiliation is in place.
