LONDON, 19 October 2011 - World-leading online bullion market BullionVault features today in a report from Digital Journal, the social news-network, on what it calls "a rush to buy gold" in the UK.
The report cites consumer surveys variously claiming that 38% of Britons now believe gold is a better savings vehicle than cash in the bank, that 14% have bought a gold item in the last year, and that 10% now hold more wealth in gold than bank savings.
"We get people investing from all walks of life," Digital Journal quotes Paul Tustain, founder and CEO of BullionVault - the UK's No.1 investment-gold service - "people who wouldn't normally take the time to trade in any product.
"They buy gold to hold their wealth because they feel it's less risky at the moment. The common thing that unites our customers is they're all skeptical about using normal methods like banks and shares given the current financial turmoil."
