Interest in precious metals investing is growing once again.
A decade ago, the global financial crisis helped popularise gold as a
go-to asset in times of economic crisis. Now, with serious talk about the
possibility of a potential downturn in international economic growth, many
people are again considering gold as a ‘safe haven’ investment with the power
to preserve wealth.
Reflecting the way in which gold is becoming more mainstream, small
investors account for a large percentage of the mounting inquiries we’re
receiving at The Perth Mint.
To cater for our diverse clients, we offer an extensive range of
traditional and contemporary products and services suitable for private
investors through to sovereign wealth funds. As a result, we not only offer
world renowned coins and bars for delivery, but also depository services via
our online portal, exchange traded products and even a handy smartphone
trading app.
Below is a more detailed look at our solutions:
Online Trading Portal

Share Trading Accounts
Trading on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) under the code PMGOLD,
Perth Mint Gold is a fully paid warrant on 1/100th of a
troy ounce of physical gold.
Able to be accessed through a standard Australian share trading account,
PMGOLD is structured to track the international spot price of gold in
Australian dollars.
Trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), AAAU is unique in the
marketplace as it is the first gold ETF to have the precious metal held on
behalf of investors guaranteed by a sovereign entity.
Designed to track the international price of gold in US dollars, it is
available to Australian investors through an international share trading
account.
Mobile App
GoldPass®
is a full-service investment app that allows users to buy, store, sell and
transfer physical gold via a 24/7 trading platform on their smartphone.
The physical gold backing each investor’s GoldPass® holdings is
represented in the form of digital certificates within the app.

For investors who wish to store physical precious metals themselves, our bullion range
comprises:
• Gold and silver minted bars
• Gold and silver cast bars
• Gold, silver and platinum bullion coins
Bullion products can be ordered online or by phone for secure delivery to
an approved location of the investor’s choice. Alternatively they can be

Why The Perth Mint?
The Perth Mint is a global leader in precious metals. We process more than
90% of Australia’s and approximately 10% of the world’s newly mined gold,
distributing precious metals worth more than AUD 18 billion annually
throughout 130 countries.
We are the sole manufacturer of the official Australian Bullion Coin
Program and make bullion bars at our refinery, one of only a few global
precious metal facilities accredited by all five of the world’s major gold exchanges:
London Bullion Market Association (LBMA), New York Commodities Exchange
(COMEX), Shanghai Gold Exchange (SGE), Tokyo Commodities Exchange (TOCOM),
and the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC).
Importantly, investors who choose any of our products do
so with the knowledge that their underlying physical holding is guaranteed by
our sole owner, the Government of Western Australia, under the Gold Corporation Act 1987.
