Gold, in the form of gold and gold bars, has served as an international payment and investment method for over 4,000 years. Although legal currencies do not currently support gold, gold reserves still serve many of the world's central banks as foreign exchange reserves. Private and institutional investors are investing in gold. In times of economic crisis, gold is considered a stable investment that can increase its value compared to other investments.
The peculiar value of gold is caused by its relative rarity, as well as by the high cost of the excavation. Gold is one of the first metals that people began to process and make objects from, and most often such objects were a testament of prestige and wealth due to its scarcity and for its extraordinary beauty.
Over time, gold became a synonym for money; after people realized how rare it was, due to the aforementioned reasons, they began to use it as a means of payment, and so it remains today, despite the appearance of money.
Gold is always a "safe harbor" for everyone, regardless of money and other values, because of human distrust in financial institutions, or a way of thinking in which gold is considered a symbol of a lasting value.
The target market of precious metals are private and institutional investors. Private investors are offered the use of the GSB-Pay portal for fast, secure and transparent digital gold trading, which can be any time converted to physical gold provided within the product Gold Standard GOLD.
