LONDON, 16 March 2013 - The growth in UK users of BullionVault is the focus today for a news story in The Guardian, and also features on The Guardian's free website - one of the world's most-visited news portals.
"Speculators and safe-haven investors have ploughed hundreds of millions of pounds in to gold since the financial crisis began," says the paper, recalling the situation 5 years ago when Bear Stearns' emergency rescue coincided with gold breaking $1000 per ounce.
Since then says The Guardian, citing BullionVault data, the number of private gold investors globally has risen ninefold, "with Britons among the most enthusiastic buyers." The majority using BullionVault choose to store their gold property in Zurich, Switzerland.
Quoting a raft of BullionVault's growth figures, the paper notes the 115% rise in Sterling gold prices since March 2008, plus the growth in Asian gold demand, especially from China.
