Kijang Emas, an alternative form of investment
Thinking about investing? Stock Market? A house or
property? Gold? Yes, gold offers secure value and
is easy to invest.
Gold acts as a reliable “store of value”
because it fulfils the functions of money. It is portable
and divisible. Its weight is a good measurement of
a unit of value. It is indestructible, relatively
scarce and cannot be “manufactured”. It
is easily recognisable and acceptable as a form of
payment.
Historically, the value of national currencies rises
and falls but the value of gold remains, remarkably
stable. Gold is an asset that does not depend upon
governments or corporations promise to repay. It is
not directly affected by the policies in any country
and it cannot be repudiated or frozen, as in the case
of assets.
Gold is the most liquid asset. It can be readily bought
or sold 24-hours a day in one or more markets around
the world. This cannot be said of most investments,
including stocks of the world’s largest corporations.
In addition, the trading spreads on bullion are generally
narrower than the spreads on stocks and bonds (which
are considered as liquid assets).
Finally, it takes about the same amount of time to
execute a trade in gold as is does for stocks and
bonds. Whether your investment approach is conservative
or aggressive, gold can play a vital role in diversifying
your portfolio.
Many experts urge investors to keep a portion of their
total assets in gold. A typical portfolio is invested
primarily in financial assets such as stocks and bonds.
Gold’s low-to-negative correlation with stocks
and bonds makes it an excellent portfolio diversifier.
Kijang Emas, a perfect gift for all occasions
Cracking your head over what to purchase for your
best friend’s wedding? A graduation? To reward
staff for top performance? Anniversary? Birthday celebration?
New born? Father’s Day?
 The
enduring value and beauty of Kijang Emas makes it
the perfect gift for special occasions and as a premium
item.
Kijang Emas bullion coins are available in small sizes,
therefore you don’t need to be wealthy to invest
in gold. In many cultures, gold serves as a family
heirloom or wealth transfer vehicle passed on from
generation to generation.
