We offer financing terms for customers placing orders for physical products or taking physical material from our refineries and mints. Stock held at the refinery can be financed through to its eventual delivery, as can stock that has already been moved to a secure location prior to delivery or sale.

Consignment

1 Consignment


Short-term consignments can be made available to customers to run precious metals bars and coins stocks at pre-approved client facilities or at secure third-party premises. The consignment stock is owned and operated by MKS, allowing the client to draw material as required from his home location and not having to wait for shipment.

These kinds of agreements are used frequently by wholesalers who are operating from a specific location, servicing the local retail clients. Consignments is similarly available at competitive rates for online suppliers of investment bars and coins products to optimize their stock management and related costs. Terms are provided based on location, duration, size product and client type after due diligence and credit approval.
