Gold DVP Settlement for South African Rand (ZAR) Trade

South Africa is the world's largest platinum and manganese producer, a major coal and chrome exporter — yet the rand's volatility and USD banking limitations constrain settlement for these critical commodity flows.

How It Works

Commodity settlement in ZAR
via physical gold

When South African Rand (ZAR) payments are blocked or delayed by correspondent banking compliance, LCORE's gold DVP mechanism provides a 2-3 working day alternative. Physical gold in Abu Dhabi acts as a settlement bridge: the buyer deposits gold into DVP escrow, the seller releases the commodity, ZAR payment is confirmed, gold is released.

No USD clearing. No SWIFT routing. ADGM English Law governs the transaction. Lloyd's $200M insurance throughout. Minimum $5M per transaction.

DVP Escrow

Multi-signature DVP: LCORE + buyer + seller. Gold releases only when all conditions are confirmed. Zero counterparty risk on either side of the transaction.

No USD Required

Settlement in ZAR via agreed correspondent without USD clearing. LCORE's ADGM position and gold mechanism bypass SWIFT USD dependency entirely.

2-3 Working Days

vs 30-180 days under blocked correspondent banking channels. DVP confirmation triggers automatic escrow release.
