The Dore Advantage
Dore gold is typically priced at a discount to spot. By acquiring gold in its raw sovereign state and overseeing the refinement process, institutional buyers capture the "refining margin," significantly increasing the net yield per kilogram.
The Refined Advantage
Refined gold (99.9%+) offers immediate liquidity. It is the gold standard for central bank reserves and private wealth preservation, requiring zero further processing and offering the lowest risk profile.
