Company Status
Strategic Gold is not an investment or fund management business. We do not invest on your behalf nor offer investment advice. Instead, we enable you to buy, hold, sell, and take delivery of precious metals.
Regulatory Exemptions
Although we adhere to the highest business standards, Strategic Gold is not required to register with any regulatory authority. This is because we only deal with non-securitized physical gold and silver. As a result, we are exempt from several regulations:
- We are not governed by the Securities Act of 1933 since all precious metals held in Clear Title Accounts are allocated and unencumbered bullion, not securitized forms of the metal.
- We are not governed by the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 because we do not provide management or advisory services.
- The CFTC does not regulate us under Section 742 of Dodd-Frank, as we settle transactions within the allowed time frame (T+2).
Money Services Business Exemption
We are not classified as a Money Services Business (MSB) because we operate a “closed system.” All funds used to purchase bullion must originate from a linked bank account, and disbursements are sent back to that same account. Consequently, we are not considered a Money Transmitter.
