Institutional Infrastructure

Operational Architecture

Infrastructure Built for
Institutional Permanence

Multi-layered operational architecture designed to support custody integrity, asset segregation, and long-term capital preservation across regulated jurisdictions.

Segregated Custody
Multi-Entity Architecture
Operational Independence
Regulatory Alignment

Custody Layer

Sovereign-Grade Custody Architecture

Physical precious metals are held in segregated storage within LBMA-aligned vaulting facilities. Each asset class maintains independent custody protocols with third-party verification.

Segregated Vaulting

Client assets are held in segregated accounts within LBMA-aligned facilities. No commingling of holdings. Full chain of custody documentation.

Institutional custody standard

Independent Verification

Third-party auditors verify physical holdings against digital representations. Regular attestation cycles ensure ongoing integrity.

Continuous assurance framework

Insurance Coverage

Comprehensive insurance protection for stored assets covering theft, damage, and operational risks within custody facilities.

Lloyd's-grade coverage

Operational Architecture

Multi-Layer Operational Design

Each operational layer maintains independence while supporting the overall governance structure. This separation ensures no single point of failure and supports long-term institutional resilience.

01

Governance Layer

Strategic oversight, policy development, and fiduciary responsibility. The governance layer sets operational boundaries and ensures alignment with institutional principles.

Policy FrameworkRisk OversightStrategic Direction
02

Custody Layer

Physical asset storage, segregation protocols, and verification processes. The custody layer operates independently from trading and technology functions.
