Investing in Platinum
Platinum has become a more mainstream precious metal in the last decade, and it is popular with investors looking to put together a diversified portfolio. Most of the world's platinum is mined in South Africa and Russia, making the metals price succeptible to changes in labour, economic and political conditions in those two countries. Platinum is also used in the manufacturing of catalytic converters in cars, and therefore its price also changes with changes in demand within the automotive industry.
Platinum Eagles are available for VAT-exempt storage or for delivery.
