Is ADGM English Common Law equivalent to Swiss cantonal law for gold custody? A1: Both provide robust property rights. ADGM's English Common Law is widely considered more internationally enforceable for cross-border disputes. Swiss law is strong but civil-law based; ADGM is common-law, the same framework used in London's gold market. Q2: What are the cost advantages of LCORE over a Swiss freeport vault? A2: Swiss vault fees include CHF storage charges, Swiss fiduciary costs, and potential AEOI reporting. LCORE's fees are USD-denominated, and the UAE has no wealth tax or CGT on gold. For GCC-based investors, the total cost of ownership is typically lower at LCORE. Q3: How does LTV financing compare between Swiss private banks and LCORE? A3: Swiss private banks typically offer 50–75% LTV on gold. LCORE offers 70–85% under ADGM law — higher ratios enabled by direct freeport custody and institutionally verified allocated title.
