Our Story
Throughout our corporate history, we have consistently led the development of precious metals-based products, providing innovative solutions for our investors. For instance, each product addresses specific investor needs with a solutions-oriented approach. Building on this foundation, Strategic Gold continues to achieve success by introducing initiatives like the Anchor Gold and Currency Trust and Universal Gold Limited.
Anchor Gold and Currency Trust
To begin with, in the early 1980s, we launched a family of mutual funds under the Anchor name. Among these, one of the standout funds was the Anchor Gold & Currency Trust, which focused on precious metals and currencies. Specifically, this fund included investments in gold, silver bullion, mining shares, and related securities. Furthermore, it operated as part of a U.S. Registered Investment Company and was traded on the Midwest Stock Exchange during the 1980s.
Universal Gold Limited
Following this success, in 1990, we introduced Universal Gold Ltd., providing clients—particularly a large European institution—with an efficient way to allocate gold in various investment structures. Since its inception, Universal Gold has offered a secure and cost-effective method for investors to own gold bullion without taking physical delivery.
Moreover, Universal Gold allows investors to participate in the gold bullion market through equity ownership. Each share represents a proportional interest in the company’s unencumbered gold bullion holdings. From the outset, Universal Gold was incorporated as an International Business Company in the British Virgin Islands. To ensure safety, its gold bullion is securely stored in the vaults of The Bank of Nova Scotia in Toronto, Canada.
In addition, our partnership with The Bank of Nova Scotia played a pivotal role in our corporate history. Universal Gold remained listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange for over 10 years. However, in 2002, we decided to de-list the company and maintain it as a private corporation.
Strategic Gold Corporation
In September 2009, Strategic Gold was founded with the goal of protecting the purchasing power of our clients’ assets and positioning them for profit during systemic disruptions. Over the years, our extensive experience has demonstrated that high-risk paper assets cannot match the security and value appreciation of physical gold and silver.
The Risks of Traditional Financial Systems
At present, most investor capital remains concentrated in financial instruments within a highly interconnected system, leaving it vulnerable to disruptions. Unfortunately, traditional asset allocation models often fail to address emerging risks or account for the fact that systemic risks cannot be managed within the system itself. Therefore, to truly protect capital, portfolios must include assets that operate independently of traditional financial instruments.
Innovative Solutions for Modern Investors
To tackle these challenges, we developed the Clear Title Account Program. This program meets the specific regulatory needs of domestic investors, particularly in response to The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA). Thus, it provides a secure and transparent platform for buying, selling, and storing investment-grade gold and silver bullion.
Additionally, the Capital Account Program offers investors the flexibility to manage and diversify their portfolios with physical gold and silver. Both programs, as a result, provide strong fiduciary controls and detailed reporting, ensuring transparency and security comparable to mainstream financial assets. In doing so, we remain committed to protecting and growing our clients’ wealth in today’s volatile markets.
A Legacy of Innovation and Commitment
In conclusion, Strategic Gold Corporation has a strong corporate history in developing precious metals-based investment products. Over the years, the company has consistently provided innovative solutions for clients seeking secure investments in gold and silver. For instance, in the 1980s, it launched the Anchor Gold and Currency Trust, and later, in 1990, it introduced Universal Gold Limited. These initiatives successfully met evolving investor needs as the market changed. Today, Strategic Gold continues to focus on preserving purchasing power and protecting wealth during financial disruptions. Moreover, the Clear Title Account Program exemplifies our dedication to offering secure and transparent platforms for buying, selling, and storing gold and silver bullion. With strong fiduciary controls and detailed reporting, these programs ensure that we maintain our commitment to client success.
