Just when we thought that the COVID-19 pandemic had been contained, Russia invades Ukraine, putting the world on the brink of a third world war and even risking a nuclear disaster that would affect the whole European continent.

This is Mundo’s way of saying that you can never be too safe, and there are two main aspects to consider when creating a protection plan: personal and financial security. 

If you had to flee your country tomorrow because a foreign government decides to invade, or if your own government decides to breach human rights by imparting movement restrictions, an unfair increase of taxes, or freezing your accounts, you need a safe place to go. 

This is the very principle of Mundo’s philosophy: all your financial decisions need to be made in the context of a greater plan, one that entails the protection of your family and your wealth. A healthy balance between material comfort and spiritual wellbeing is necessary and this means that your assets and your family need to be duly protected.

A gold golf offer in a nutshell

Why do you need to protect yourself from wars, pandemics, and global recession?

At the risk of sounding like alarmists, at Mundo, we think that you can never be too cautious. Let’s analyze the current global situation to understand the severity of the problem and the uniqueness of Mundo’s offer. 

- Experts estimate cuts in global GDPs to be between 25% to 50%. 

- Experts state that the severity of the economic impact is related to the strictness of governments’ anti-pandemic measures. 

- The pandemic outbreak occurred in 2020 and we are still seeing its nasty consequences. This is an unprecedented event for which nobody was prepared and affected industries that we thought to be untouchable. Some of these are airlines, oil, food production, transportation, and tourism. 

- Moreover, just when the restrictions are starting to be more flexible, at least in some regions, war breaks and divides the world in two. Two of the greatest military powers are involved in a conflict that can only lead to a refugee crisis, the fall of the markets, social turmoil, which leads to further deceleration of the economy, and so on. 

What consequences can we be facing? 

Despite the rhetoric of the governments insisting that the Covid-19 measures are for the greater good, the reality shows something different. Although in most cases the intentions are noble, the above-mentioned facts generate the following consequences:

- Massive unemployment in most countries, even in developed ones. 

- High probability of rebates of sovereign debt.

- Major and unprecedented increase in public debt. Governments will ask for capital from the private sector in a desperate attempt to fight the pandemic.

- What is worse, these measures entail high costs and low efficiency prospects. There is no guarantee or accurate predictions regarding the advancement of the COVID-19.

- Legitimate doubts as to whether it will be possible to restore the levels of corporate globalization and supply chain systems at the same level they were before the Covid-19 outbreak. 

What is the solution? 

The financial crisis calls for safe investments, and this is why gold becomes so important. Nonetheless, there are many gold investments available and you will be wise to carefully pick your battles. For example, jewelry gold is not a good option right now as the demand decreased due to the lockdowns and transportation restrictions. 

Mundo firmly believes that gold is the solution and next we present the most important reasons: 

- Gold ETFs have shown remarkable resilience during the financial crisis in the past two years, showing the highest inflows quarterly. 

- Said inflows helped push the price of gold in USD considerably 

- Although it is expected that central banks reduce the purchase of gold, they have continued to accumulate gold during this period. 

- Since thethe pandemic affected gold mining and production, the availability of this metal has been reduced pushing its value even higher. 

- Gold is used for a variety of purposes including value holding, industrial uses, precious metals, and as a monetary asset. When any of these sectors lose demand, others increase it thus balancing the scale and keeping gold at a high value.

Gold bond in Panama 

The product 

The bond offers exceptionally high yields reaching 8,5% of annual returns. These returns are paid quarterly and derived from the commissions of selling gold. 

Secure investment 

A gold bond like this helps you leverage the market price generating a fixed income. At the same time, it’s the perfect opportunity to safeguard your physical gold, which can also be used as a guarantee against the funds. 

One of the best things about this product is that, since it has a prearranged fixed income, it avoids the volatility of the market. This is done within the most secure framework and metals are transported through a safe and compliant process. 

How are the funds used 

The totality of the funds is allocated on the purchase of doré bars. These products are under the protection of reliable custodians and have AAA certification in place. 

Advantages

- Outstanding returns of 8.5% a year. This is way more than what banks offer and surpasses real estate returns in most cases. 

- Capital guarantee of 105%. The bonds are backed by real gold at all times. 

- No direct market exposure keeps you safe from volatility. 

- The product and the transactions are in US dollars, which eliminates any potential loss derived from currency fluctuations. 

Product characteristics 

According to the Superintendence of the securities market of Panama, it’s not mandatory to register private allocations. This is a clear example of the country’s flexibility, which we discussed above. 

Moreover, if you do want to move into a bond listed in the stock market, you can transfer it directly under the same terms and conditions. A product like this is highly exclusive. It can only be offered to 25 people and only by the issuer or its offeror. 

Summary 

- Type of offer: Private placement

- Amount: Up to 10 million USD

- Yearly interest rate: 8.5%

How it works 

Step 1

The provider negotiates a fixed selling price for doré bars. If this is not possible, they establish a fixed indicative of sale with international refineries. The beauty of the deal lies in getting the best fixing possible to spread the client’s margin. For example, let’s suppose that the spot market price is 1,500 troy per ounce. They will try to obtain a differential price higher than this by 0.10%-0.25%. 

Step 2

The system works in the same way when it’s time to buy the asset. The provider will negotiate a fixed price or get a differential below the spot market by 0.25%-0.50%. So far, the experts have managed to get a margin in favor of the client which equals the selling (above market price) and the purchase (below market price). 

Step 3

This is the part where the physical bars are transported. It’s possible to provide a clean and safe delivery thanks to a combination of different players. More than one laboratory is involved to make sure that the gold has the finest quality. These laboratories are from the certification entity, commercialization companies, suppliers, and refineries and use advanced testing methods like fire tests, litmus, and XRF. 

Once all the parties reach an agreement on the purity of the gold, a certificate is issued and given to the provider. Refineries, at this point, receive the amount of gold agreed in advance and are contractually obliged to complete the transaction at the agreed price. Even if this is lower than the spot price, they benefit from the volume of doré bars they receive regularly. 

Step 4

Now, the provider is in charge to pay all the players. Once the gold has been assessed and its value duly stipulated, they transfer 95% of this value.

Step 5

When the process comes to an end, the refineries transfer 95% of the bar’s value to the provider. They proceed to change the ownership and ship the metals. The customs and import paperwork must be duly prepared and authorized before taking this step.
