Follow on Google News | Dillon Gage Launches Precious Metal Platform for Canadian Retirement AccountsCoins and Bars Will Be Stored with the Metals Dealer’s Toronto-Based Broker Questrade, Inc.
By: Dillon Gage Inc. of Dallas Canadian citizens have been able to include investment-grade gold and silver coins, bullion bars and wafers in RRSPs since 2005. Gold and silver coins must be at least 99.5 and 99.9 percent pure, respectively, according to the Canadian Revenue Agency. Bullion bars are eligible as long as they're produced by a refinery accredited by the London Bullion Market Association. Legal tender coins produced by the Royal Canadian Mint can be held in RRSPs. “Many investors today allocate part of their savings to precious metals, including coins, for a balanced portfolio; however, many are unaware of the ability to utilize RRSP funds for this purpose,” Terry Hanlon, president of Dillon Gage Metals in Dallas, says. “The creation of this platform was a natural complement to our electronic trading platform. Coin dealers have told us for many years that opening RRSPs for retail investors, waiting for funds to clear, and purchasing and storing the coins can be confusing and time consuming.” As an international precious metals wholesaler with a sophisticated electronic trading system and the owner of metals depositories, Dillon Gage had the technology to create the Closed Loop RRSP platform. Dillon Gage has simplified the RRSP process for participants— From a dashboard, a coin dealer takes the first step for his customer. The retail investor receives an email from his dealer with a link to Dillon Gage'snew accounts system. This sets the stage for the self-directed RRSP. Funds are secured, and the dealer is approved to buy coins on the Digital Metals Platform for his client. The coins are purchased and can be stored in Toronto, Ontario, in secured and insured accounts at International Depository Services of Canada. International Depository Services of Canada and its sister location in New Castle, Del., are approved associates of the London Bullion Market Association. IDS-Canada is also approved by the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada, or IIROC, as eligible to hold LBMA gold and silver good delivery bars. “Our closed-loop retirement platform streamlines the process for all parties and increases the business opportunities for Canadian coin dealers to assist their clients with these transactions,” For more information, please visit Dillon Gage Metals at www.dillongage.com or call (800)375-4653.
