We founded A GOLD because we saw an opportunity to do things differently,” stated the company’s founder. “We’re passionate about customer service and strive to secure the best value for the gold our sellers provide, whether directly or through our extensive network of buyers.”

COMPANY OVERVIEW
A GOLD has been in operation since 1970, starting in Canada, and has grown into a global enterprise with over 120 employees worldwide. Our Head Office and Main Operations Center are located in the United Kingdom. We maintain AAA office spaces and warehouses in various international locations to support our operations.

GLOBAL REACH AND CAPACITY
A GOLD proudly serves clients in over 50 countries. We have a robust working capital capable of handling over $6 billion in gold purchases annually, translating to more than 150 tons annually. Our preferred deliveries are between 1,000kg and 2,000kg per week per customer, with a maximum of three customers per week, due to our nominated refineries’ capacity to refine up to 1,000kg per day.

DUE DILIGENCE AND COMPLIANCES REQUIREMENT
A Gold General Trading FZC is a company registered with the Government of the UK and holds a license for trading in precious metals. We have meticulously undergone all necessary due diligence and compliance procedures mandated by the authorities.

BANKING AND FINANCIAL INTEGRITY
Our shareholders and the company have bank accounts with major banks in the U.A.E., including Emirates NBD, Bank of Singapore, Emirates Islamic Bank, NBAD (National Bank of Abu Dhabi), Mashreq Bank, HSBC, Citibank, Standard Chartered Bank, and First Gulf Bank. Establishing these accounts required thorough due diligence and compliance checks, particularly concerning anti-money laundering regulations.

SECURITY AND COMPLIANCE PARTNERSHIPS
We have also passed stringent due diligence and compliance procedures with renowned security services such as Transguard (owned by Emirates Airlines and the government), G4S, Brinks, and the Dubai Government Authority – Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC). These measures ensure our legitimacy and reputation in the gold trading industry.

SELLER  ASSURANCE AND COMPLIANCE
We prioritize making our sellers feel secure and confident when dealing with us. Every seller to A GOLD must undergo comprehensive due diligence and compliance procedures conducted by our Legal Department. This process is essential to meet our Precious Metals Trading License requirements from the UAE Government, our banks, and international authorities, including Interpol, the United Nations, and local export country authorities.

Banks will not process transactions involving sanctioned entities or countries, including Iran, Cuba, North Korea, Sudan, Syria, and Israel. Transactions involving these entities will not be completed. Additionally, shipments, trans-shipments, or transit involving these countries or parties sanctioned by the United Nations, United States, European Union, or United Kingdom are strictly prohibited.

SELLING GOLD
For those looking to sell their gold, we recommend visiting our website at www.dkegoldfzc.com and following the provided instructions or emailing us at the contact address found on the “Contact Us” page. The process is entirely risk-free, allowing sellers to choose whether to accept or decline our offer.

We primarily purchase gold bars from CIF Dubai and ensure payment within three days after receiving assay results from our nominated assayer. Payments are based on the previous day’s LBMA second fixing or the spot bid price. Suppose sellers are unsatisfied with the assay results. In that case, they can reclaim their gold by covering only the expenses incurred, such as customs clearance, transport via security company, insurance, smelting, and assay costs. If the sale proceeds, the seller bears all costs in both the importing and exporting countries, with no expense to A GOLD.

COMMITTED TO EXCELLENCE 
At A GOLD, we are committed to providing a secure and efficient process for gold trading. Our dedication to thorough compliance and due diligence ensures we remain a reputable and trusted partner in the precious metals market. We strive to offer unparalleled customer service and the best possible value for the gold entrusted to us
