Know About Digital Gold

Digital gold is like an electronic currency based on mass and units of gold, which is stored in insured vaults. Anyone can invest in digital gold easily through multiple websites and applications or with the help of brokers. Digital gold can be bought for as little as Re 1 and in multiple fractions, allowing more and more people to invest in gold.

Clearly, it is not the usual gold bar, coin, or a piece of jewellery that has been bought traditionally across the world. Instead it is a mode of ‘investment' that is done in ‘digital' gold, at least initially.

A physical equivalent of the gold bought digitally is then safely stored in a digital locker. The locker is maintained and the gold guarded by the seller, on behalf of the customer, till the time the buyer chooses to sell or have the gold delivered physically.

There is a one-time cost for storage and safety of digital gold. This cost is included in the price of gold at the time of buying and may vary from that of the gold price on MCX or in physical markets.

Word of Caution

The lack of a regulatory mechanism for the product leaves room for malpractices or even unintended loopholes. Both investors and issuers—buyers as well as sellers—thus need to be cautious when trading in digital gold.

The issuers of gold will have to have strong funding at all times, as investors may want to redeem or sell back their digital gold. There would also be a need to have physical gold in vaults for those who may ask for a delivery.

On the other hand, investors who may want to withdraw physical gold and sell it elsewhere will need to keep an eye on prices in the market, as delay in redeeming could lead to missing out on a good price point to sell. A delay in selling the gold could also mean that the investor did not get the desired funds when needed.

Experts also say that in the absence of proper regulatory measures customers could also be cheated with lower quality gold handed over to them by jewellers, breaking down the higher quality gold that they have accumulated digitally.

In such a scenario, it is mostly up to the buyers to be mindful of their investments and decisions to liquidate. There are safeguards in the form of trustees and insurance cover to protect the interests of investors, which buyers can consider.

    Anyone interested in buying and selling or even storing gold can go digital with gold’s purchase. It is simple to trade in. Digital gold particularly gives young people, who may not have higher amounts set aside for investment, a chance to trade and build a portfolio.

  • Why should I invest in digital gold in a pandemic?

    Since the markets are unstable and volatile due to the coronavirus led lockdowns as well as business disruptions, digital gold is a comparatively secure investment. It is a good way to protect oneself in an unpredictable market since gold is uncorrelated with the market slumps and tends to perform better than other assets during an economic slowdown.

  • What are the advantages of digital gold over other financial instruments related to gold?
    • Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are investments that generate returns similar to gold. These are managed by financial companies that can encounter fund shortages, ultimately affecting investors. These financial companies may also not have a sum equivalent to the gold and may fail to repay all investors in a scenario where all of them decide to leave together. This is not the case with digital gold, where you are actually trading for gold, just in its ‘digital’ form. Also, ETFs cannot be redeemed for physical gold or sent as a gift either, unlike digital gold.
    • Sovereign gold bonds are another financial instrument related to gold. Although these are a good investment, they are not investments in actual gold. Also, unlike digital gold, if buyers choose to redeem sovereign bonds prior to maturity, it can prove very costly. On the other hand, digital gold can be invested in – bought and sold- 24x7.
