Custody Framework
Custody-first infrastructure designed to safeguard client assets
Effective: February 2025
Allocated Ownership
Each client holds beneficial ownership of specifically allocated physical metals. Auxite does not operate fractional reserves.
Asset Segregation
Client metals are:
- Fully allocated
- Legally segregated
- Held off corporate balance sheets
Client assets are never commingled with corporate funds.
Independent Vaulting
Metals are stored within professional vault facilities designed to meet global security standards. Vault operators are selected through rigorous due diligence and maintain internationally recognized certifications.
No Rehypothecation
Auxite does not lend, pledge, or otherwise encumber client metals without explicit client authorization.
Insurance
Vault operators typically maintain insurance coverage consistent with industry practices. Coverage details are available upon request.
Operational Integrity
Regular reconciliation procedures are performed to ensure alignment between recorded ownership and physical holdings. Auxite maintains transparent reporting standards.
Custody is treated as core financial infrastructure — not a secondary service.
