Collateral Custody

Through First State's specialized Collateral Custody Service, as an investor or as a commercial enterprise, you can pledge your coin and bullion assets as security for lending transactions you may wish to conduct with a bank or through a financing company, without incurring needless handling or shipping costs.

Once First State's specially tailored three-party collateral custody agreement is executed between and among you, your lender and First State, we can transfer your assets to a newly established collateral account as security for your lender, so that your loan can be made.

Once your loan obligations are satisfied, your lender will instruct First State to transfer your assets back to your account, free and clear.
