Do Australian residents still owe Australian CGT on LCORE-vaulted gold? A1: Australian residents are taxed on worldwide income and gains. Offshore gold storage does not eliminate Australian CGT liability — it defers the realisable event. Australian clients should consult an ATO-registered tax adviser. Q2: Can ASX-listed gold companies use LCORE for refined inventory custody? A2: Yes. ASX gold producers can direct refined bars to Etihad Secure Logistics for institutional custody under ADGM law — ideal for hedging physical inventory outside the Australian financial system. Q3: What makes LCORE's DVP settlement attractive for Sydney-based commodity firms? A3: LCORE's DVP (2–3 business days, min $5M) provides simultaneous fund and metal settlement with ADGM and DIFC counterparties — bridging Sydney's gold production to Middle East and Asian demand in a regulated framework.
