Precious Metals – a Temporary Tense Situation

You may already have noticed: The tense situation in the global platinum and palladium market has reached a new level of escalation, and our partner, like many other companies, is currently experiencing an extraordinary period of structural shortages.

Both the US and China are buying up large quantities of available supply, and Chinese demand, in particular, has reached an all-time high. Therefore, there are currently significant procurement difficulties, which have led suppliers to charge a 2% higher purchase price.

To ensure continued tradability, our partner must pass these additional costs on to his customers 1:1. Therefore, we would like to inform you today that our partner will be increasing the trading margins for platinum and palladium purchases at flexgold by 2% starting Friday, September 19, 2025.

Of course, this adjustment is only temporary and will only apply until the market situation returns to normal.

This measure is for the benefit of our customers, as without this adjustment, our partner would no longer be able to accept any further purchases of platinum and palladium. As soon as the situation improves, they will return the margins to their original level and inform you immediately.

Fortunately, the situation around gold and silver is not (yet) impacted and you can purchase both metals at standard conditions, without any uplifts. To preserve your wealth and to protect your assets gold and silver suit perfectly well. And using the swap strategy you can increase the volume of precious metals owned by you and the value of your vault even without needing any further investments.

You can register for FlexGold easily via our link, which provides you with even more benefits and advantages (as explained in this article).

Do not forget, that holding precious metals can bring additional tax benefits. For example, for German citizens the sale of precious metals is completely tax free, if they have hold them for more than one year.
