Each PAXG token represents one fine troy ounce of London Good Delivery gold held in LBMA-accredited London vaults. Token holders have direct ownership rights and benefit from independent monthly audits and full bar-level transparency, as described by the respective token issuers.
Tether Gold (XAUt), issued by TG Commodities, similarly represents one troy ounce of 99.99% pure physical gold stored in secure Swiss vaults. The token is designed for easy on-chain transferability and ownership of allocated gold bars, with quarterly attestations for transparency.
Carmen Tan, Managing Director of GCEX MENA, commented: “Following the introduction of Gold Futures CFDs last month, the addition of tokenised gold trading represents a natural next step in expanding our offering. We look forward to offering institutional clients efficient, fully on-chain access to physical gold via leading tokenised products. It is an offering which is welcomed by clients as it enables them to trade through digital settlement mechanisms.”
CFD trading on gold is available through relevant GCEX group entities in accordance with their respective regulatory permissions. CFDs are complex instruments and carry a high level of risk.
