LONDON, 17 February 2011 - Secure, low-cost gold ownership leader BullionVault appears today in the Financial Times' FT Adviser magazine, the UK's best-read publication for financial intermediaries.
"[Independent financial advisors] should not worry about January's gold figures, which saw an 8.5% drop in the price," says the professional magazine, "as it can still form part of a balanced portfolio, according to BullionVault."
Quoting Adrian Ash, head of research for the West London-based company, "Economic conditions make a strong case for gold investment throughout 2011," says FT Adviser, which now boasts a paid circulation of 37,000 professional financial intermediary offices.
"The gold price suffered a bigger drop in July 2010, but this did not affect the asset's strong performance across the year as a whole. Gold priced in Sterling hasn't fallen for more than two months running since autumn 2006. None of the six two-month drops seen since then have taken gold's losses above 11%."
Barton Financial Planning IFA Mark Ireland in London agrees, saying that "The misplaced human instinct of the masses will be to hoard cash and to watch it lose value in real terms.
"Whether you see gold, a non-income producing asset, as a safe bet is another matter and it will not be one for the faint hearted."
