This week on Gold for the 21st Century, we welcome Gregor Gregerson, Founder of Silver Bullion Group, into the SmarterMarkets™ studio. David Greely sits down with Gregor to discuss the role of gold and precious metals in protecting wealth, the physical infrastructure and technology required, and why creating and maintaining trust remains the foundation of a functional financial system.

We’re always seeing headlines of Gold, after prices have hit record highs again and again. But what about the poor man’s gold - Silver? Are there any opportunities in investing in Silver? On Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Gregor Gregersen, Founder, Silver Bullion Group, to find out more. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Silver Bullion founder Gregor Gregersen and The Safe House team have been setting the standard for vaulting and non-destructive precious metals testing for years. As a result, the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) invited Gregor to an LBMA conference in London to speak on a standard for precious metals. Come see what Gregor had to say here.

Hong Kong is at a pivotal moment as it strives to position itself as a global hub for commodities trading, particularly for precious metals. With its proximity to China, the world’s largest consumer of base and precious metals, and its role as an international financial centre, the city is uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between Asia’s growing demand and global trading influence. As BRICS countries drive a significant portion of global commodities demand, Hong Kong has a unique opportunity to serve as a vital trading hub for BRICS countries and the broader Asian market. On The Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Gregor Gregersen, Founder of Silver Bullion Group, to find out how Hong Kong can capitalise on this opportunity and establish itself as a benchmark-setting commodities hub.

Gold’s rise in 2024 has captivated investors, with prices surging from around $2,000 per ounce to new record highs. Yet, navigating gold investments has become increasingly complex. Historically considered a stable, long-term asset, gold’s recent short-term rally has prompted a surge of interest in everything from ETFs to physical bullion. But with so many options on the table, what’s the best way for investors to capture value in today’s market? Are 1-ounce gold bars a compelling alternative to larger bullion, coins, or ETFs? Or do other strategies still prevail? On The Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Gregor Gregersen, Founder, Silver Bullion Group to find out.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Zeiten wirtschaftlicher und politischer Turbulenzen möchten viele Menschen ihr Vermögen vor dem anfälligen Bankensystem schützen. Daher steigt auch das Interesse an Edelmetallen wie Gold. Denn Silber und Gold haben sich schon seit über 4000 Jahren als zuverlässiges Zahlungsmittel erwiesen. Daher lohnt es sich langfristig in physisches Gold und Silber zu investieren. Welche Vorteile es bietet in physisches Gold zu investieren und warum man Edelmetalle in Singapur lagern sollte, erfahren Sie in unserem aktuellen Podcast. Zu Gast ist Gregor Gregersen, Gründer von Silver Bullion und seit 2009 im Geschäft mit Edelmetallen.

Tom welcomes Gregor back to the show to discuss the action in the silver markets. He's seen a clear increase in silver demand from European and Canadian markets. There is a lot of unease in the world and that seems to be driving demand. Having metals is important because cash in the bank doesn't really exist in a physical sense and it's also the bank's property. Essentially, you are an unsecured creditor. The dollar had a confidence crisis around 1981, and the action of Volcker boosted that confidence when he raised rates. Today, we are at a similar point with inflation entering the danger zone. However, the Fed can't raise rates enough to rebuild confidence because of the massive leverage in the system. MMT theory claims it doesn't matter how much we print. There is no good ending to this economic situation and the dollar is likely to lose its reserve status this decade. Gold and silver should be higher than they are now. It seems like they are being pressured to stay down. This isn't necessarily a bad thing because it still gives people an opportunity to buy. He explains how they have limited exposure to other parties in the event of nationalization. If you're storing your gold with a global storage company they may be obligated to obey certain regulations around the nationalization of metals. This is why Singapore is advantageous because their government is the last place that would ever consider nationalization. Singapore is very wealthy, doesn't have much debt, and its pensions are fully funded. They have a lot of financial assets which offset their debt. People have a lot of confidence in the Singapore government and the country has excellent private property rights. Also, Singapore has a sizeable military and air force in many ways it's very similar to Switzerland. Gregor discusses how their Cache token works and is fully backed by physical metal. These tokens can be traded freely and also converted to gold. These can of course be converted back to Bitcoin and used with many exchanges. Their new vault has the highest capacity of any vault in the world. The size of the vault could also enable the storage of other metals such as aluminum and nickel. Investors should consider putting some of their money into gold and silver. Having bullion seems more important now than ever.

Tom welcomes Karim Raffa Chief Operating Officer of Cache Gold to the show. Karim discusses his background in Fintech and blockchain technologies and what led him to begin working with Gregor Gregersen based in Singapore. Cache Gold is a digital asset-backed token where every unit is backed by one gram of pure physical gold. The purpose of Cache is to simply enable conversion and redemption of gold to tokens and back. Holders of cache gold can redeem these tokens and exchange them freely with others just like other ERC-20 tokens. Various exchanges and bullion dealers around the world accept Cache Gold. They chose the Ethereum blockchain for its versatility and ability to create custom digital contracts. They utilize an public event-based explorer that records the history of every gold bar in their vaults. They track all activities of the gold including its location, purity, weight, history along with a photograph of each vault parcel. He discusses how Tether is supposed to operate and compares it with Cache. Cache is completely transparent and auditable unlike questionable services and stablecoins like Tether. He explains their fee structures for using the platform and how those are automated. If you want exposure to physical gold without being concerned about storing and acquiring the physical product then CGT may be an excellent method. They plan to add silver, nickel, and cobalt in the future to their platform. They are considering an NFT version of their tokens leveraging the digital receipts of actual physical bars in the vault.

In part II of this SBTV interview with Gregor Gregersen founder of Silver Bullion group at The Safe House vault in Singapore, Gregor shares how the GramChain system brings greater transparency to the precious metals industry.

Tom welcomes Gregor back to the show to discuss the action in the silver markets. Last year brought an enormous increase in physical demand, which waned slightly in Q4 but has since picked up again. Gregor provides several reasons why Singapore is an excellent jurisdiction for a storage bullion business. The financial system is all based on trust and faith. Today there is rampant money printing, and at some point, people may not accept dollars. When a loss of confidence occurs with the dollar, the government will have to create a new system likely based on gold. To mitigate confiscation risks, they offer offshore bullion storage outside of US authority. He believes much of the retail silver market shortages are only on specific items like products made at government mints. 1000oz bars are still readily available but at slightly higher premiums. He explains how some gold deliveries last year were difficult due to Covid restrictions, resulting in higher premiums. He discusses the strategy of trading between gold and silver when the relative ratios show buying opportunities. It's a brilliant strategy to utilize. Platinum is relatively underpriced, and he discusses why that may be an opportunity. Palladium, on the other hand, is now overpriced. Platinum is tough to obtain, so that may limit investor's ability to buy. He discusses the naked shorting in the equity market and how similar behavior occurs in the silver markets. The recent Gamestop activity shows the systemic risk in the financial system. The day will come where physical silver can't be obtained, so buy it and sit on it. It's not just an investment. It's insurance. Gregor explains how their Cache Gold Token works and why they have made their system extremely transparent. He describes how their marketplace works and enables converting tokens into a delivery order or selling it. It's a clever way to combine gold and crypto.

SBTV's guest this week is Gregor Gregersen, founder of systemic wealth protection specialist Silver Bullion and The Safe House vault in Singapore. Despite the rally in silver prices recently, Gregor has no doubt that silver is grossly mispriced compared to the massive global debt.

SBTV speaks with Gregor Gregersen, Founder of Silver Bullion and The Safe House, about the economic future of Europe and the coming bail-ins for bank depositors in the next economic reset. Gregor also shares why silver is his asset of choice right now.

Gregor Gregersen is the CEO and founder of https://www.silverbullion.com.sg?RI=S9314 (Silver Bullion Pte Ltd). A gold bullion and silver bullion Singapore dealer as well as The Safe House. A Singaporean Vault company for many types of precious metals; including electric vehicle metals. Gregor Gregersen has lived as an Expat for nearly 38 years, and he actually gave up his German passport to become a Singaporean citizen. In this interview, we talk about why Gregor chose this country to build his vault for gold bullion and silver bullion Singapore and how this led to electric vehicle metals.   What are "Electric Vehicle Metals"? The Electric Vehicle Metals I am referring to are the metals that go into the batteries that power electric cars. These are precious metals and bullion of high grade. They are used in the manufacturing process and compose the bulk of the batteries themselves.   Why Should we care about Electric Vehicle Metals and Batteries? Electric vehicle batteries are becoming too cheap to ignore. In the past 4 years, production costs for EV batteries have fallen by over 70%, thanks to investments from major automakers. Elon Musk thinks that these costs will fall a further 20% by 2020. That would make these batteries cheaper to produce than internal combustion engines.   Special Report on Electric Vehicle Metals After recording the interview with Gregor Gregorson I got massively interested in the topic of electric vehicle metals as an investment.   I took everything I learned from Gregor plus a couple of hundred hours of research and I compiled it down into a special report. In this special report, I break down why electric vehicle metals is a space you should really be paying attention to, what the opportunities are, what the pitfalls are and most importantly how you can get involved. I think you will see that the world is changing, fortunes are being made and by the time you hear about it on mainstream media it will be too late and you will have missed your chance.   In my daily life, I travel the world searching for unique opportunities, I put an intense amount of due diligence in my research and when I find something really extraordinary I share it with my subscribers.   This is one of those times...   I was thinking about charging for this special report on electric vehicle metals…. Maybe $97 or $197 or maybe it will be part of a paid subscription newsletter I am working on, I have not decided yet...   In the meantime I don't want to delay, this is timely information and I want to get this special report into your hands as fast as possible… therefore I will let you have a copy of it for free for being a loyal listener of this podcast.   If you really want to dig into electric vehicle metals as an investment; to learn about the opportunities, how to protect your investment and what the exact steps are to get started in the most profitable way possible you can download your copy of the report for free by clicking https://expatmoneyshow.com/evm/ (HERE.)   What Does Gregor Gregersen Store in his Singaporean Vault https://www.silverbullion.com.sg?RI=S9314 (Silver Bullion) Singapore holds all types of precious metals including gold bullion, silver bullion, platinum bullion. They buy, sell and test all types of bullion. And of course, as we talk about in this interview electric vehicle metals.   Conversations on Commodities With Gregor Gregersen I find conversations on commodities like electric vehicle metals really fascinating. I have been speculating on things like this for nearly 10 years now. Sufficed to say a lot of work goes into understanding this.   In the coming months, I will be writing more on investment topics like this. I am working on a paid newsletter where every month you will receive a special report detailing timely opportunities that I uncover in my journey around the... Support this podcast

In today's podcast, I chatted with Silver Bullion's founder Gregor Gregersen. Silver Bullion is a precious metals storage company based in Singapore. While here in Singapore, Gregor and I discussed why the gold versus Bitcoin debate is misguided. It's not an either-or proposition. Instead, with systemic risks in the financial system, the case for holding both precious metals and cryptocurrency makes sense. And Silver Bullion offers solutions for both asset classes. [Full disclosure: I'm a director of Silver Bullion.] Gregor's a software engineer with experience in finance. He recently published a 35-page white paper on an exciting way to hold encrypted, secure Bitcoin in cold storage for decades. And with software Gregor developed himself, you can now store gold at their facility, borrow money with your gold as collateral and buy Bitcoin. You also don't want to miss Gregor's opinion on why cryptocurrency and gold will survive the next financial crisis.

We discuss life in Singapore and what it was that made him choose to get citizenship there even though it meant giving up his German one. We go over how he was able to effectively quadruple his income by making this move. He is very positive about many of the policies that Singapore uses and we contrast those with those of most western countries. We also talk about his precious metals storage company and the precious metals market in general.  He has put together what he considers to be the most secure way of storing metals and he explains why. We also go over his thoughts on the future of banking and how precious metals and cryptocurrencies may play a par in the future of banking.

Gregor Gregersen is the Founder and CEO of Silver Bullion in Singapore. It’s a state of the art facility that is truly innovating the category through transparency, technology and cost efficiency. If you do nothing else with this episode, checkout the video loop here of the Silver Bullion “Safe House”, you’ll be impressed. Gregor had an interesting experience during the 2008 financial crisis that led him to starting Silver Bullion that is a fascinating story in itself. On this episode we compare different ways to buy and sell gold, what types of mints and coinages are most common, the comparison of holding physical gold at home or abroad, Singapore as a safe have, and evaluate a few of the systemic risks that face the global today. We also discuss the unique and intriguing P-2-P lending platform that Silver Bullion created where loans are secured by the borrowers precious metals. No matter what your experience in purchasing precious metals has been in the past, there will be something you can take away from this episode.
