FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can Laos-based institutions store gold in Abu Dhabi?
Yes. LCORE serves institutional counterparties from Laos — family offices, commodity traders, sovereign entities, and corporate treasuries. After compliance onboarding (KYC/AML/source-of-funds), gold is shipped to Abu Dhabi's pre-customs zone for allocated segregated storage under ADGM regulation.
What legal framework protects Laos investors' gold in ADGM?
ADGM operates under English Common Law — the same legal framework governing London's bullion market. Laos investors benefit from familiar legal remedies, FSRA regulatory oversight, and Warehouse Receipts that function as title documents. In insolvency, WHR holders are first-priority secured creditors.
How is gold insured for Laos clients at LCORE's vault?
Lloyd's of London policy (brokered by Marsh Ltd, FCA #307511) provides $250M coverage per shipment, covering transit, storage, and handling. Coverage operates under English law with enforceable claims through ADGM Courts.
