Gems & commodities
Hard assets, held and financed.
The desk where the collateral is the asset itself.
Precious metals
Precious stones
The desk
Four ways the desk works.
Anchored to the same discipline as the trade book: commodity-backed instruments, documented to institutional standard.
AU
Precious metals
Gold and bullion. Acquisition, storage and financing against the metal.
GEM
Precious stones
Certified stone transactions between vetted counterparties.
CBI
Commodity-backed instruments
Instruments collateralised by the commodity, not the balance sheet.
STF
Structured trade finance
Multi-leg commodity flows across jurisdictions.
Transactions are facilitated between vetted counterparties with disciplined documentation, subject to eligibility, provenance verification and regulatory requirements in each jurisdiction.
The art collection
Over five thousand pieces.
The AL AMANAH X2X Art Collection comprises a comprehensive selection of contemporary Swiss art that numbers over 5,000 pieces, spanning a wide array of media. Paintings, sculptures, photographs, videos, graphics and drawings are displayed.
Dubai Art
The material
What the desk actually handles.
Stones and metal before they become instruments. Every line is verified for provenance, assayed and documented before it moves.
