The Times: Low-Cost Contrarian Gold

LONDON, 11 October 2015 – Investors looking to buck the crowd with a contrarian move into gold can cut their costs to a minimum using BullionVault, says The Sunday Times' award-winning personal finance columnist Ian Cowie today.

"Gold has become such an unfashionable store of value that nobody made much fuss when it recorded its fifth consecutive quarter of falling prices last month," says Cowie – named 'financial commentator of the year, 2015' by public-relations database Headlinemoney at its prestigious annual awards earlier this year.

Noting that history says gold often starts to shine after being out of the limelight, "Investors willing to forgo the Silas Marner pleasure of counting their coins can keep costs low," Cowie goes on, pointing to how BullionVault's typical client holds £10,000 in gold and pays only £32 a year to keep it securely in professional storage.

"That's a fraction of equity or bond fund charges."
