Allocated, insured, audited.
Bullion bought from Optima can be stored in our segregated, allocated vaults at a Brink's high-security facility in central London. Every bar and coin is individually identified by serial number and audited annually by an independent third party.

Allocated vs unallocated
Allocated storage means specific bars or coins are set aside in your name — you own the metal, not a paper claim against a pool. If the custodian fails, your bullion is yours to remove. Unallocated, by contrast, is a creditor's claim against the storage provider's balance sheet. At Optima we only offer allocated.
