Saving money in a traditional savings account may soon mean that you will no longer earn interest but instead pay for this privilege by having a negative interest rate charged to your account!
- In addition to this, some forecasters are expecting an increase in inflation, which could mean that your savings have less purchasing power over time.
- These two factors are making traditional savings accounts less and less attractive.
- Owning gold has historically been seen as a protection against inflation and also performs well during times of low or negative interest rates, making it an ideal solution in these times.
- However, the price of an ounce of gold whether it’s a gold bar or a gold coin has meant that it wasn’t a suitable alternative for a regular savings plan for most people.
Are you concerned about the impact that inflation and negative interest rates will have on your hard-earned savings?

Client Testimonials
My only regret about the GoldCore GoldSaver plan is that I didn't sign onto it much earlier. Making regular investments in gold could not be easier. There isn't much to say about the individual transactions because they're so transparent as to be practically unnoticeable.
Roy McCoy
GoldSaver provides an excellent way for long term savers to hedge against deposit account negative interest rates & inflation.
Eoghain Mac Carthaigh
I enrolled in GoldCore's Gold Saver account about 16 months ago. The peace of mind that I get, knowing that my position in gold will consistently grow every month, is tremendous. You can set your monthly purchase as low as $100 on up to whatever you want. I set my pledge kind of low just in case something happens where a large commitment would really hurt. If you want more than what you have pledged, you can add to that months purchase very easily online. It's a great program for anyone interested in building a position in gold each and every month. I feel that everyone should have the protection against inflation that gold provides.

How Can I Save In Gold?
As the top gold accumulation program in the United Kingdom, the GoldSaver account is the safest way to save and buy gold bullion.
With rising inflation and a troublesome banking system it is increasingly becoming the case that traditional savings accounts are less attractive than they were in the past.
What has consistently remained the same throughout time, is the protection that physical gold offers against inflation, not to mention its performance during financial and geopolitical crises.
However, whilst gold investment has long been a source of interest for many, the price of an ounce of gold, whether it’s a gold bullion bar or a gold coin, has meant that it wasn’t an affordable alternative for a regular savings plan for most people.
