Transaction Documentation
International precious-metals transactions require appropriate documentation and due diligence. We establish what applies for the product, the transaction and the destination.
Information buyers need to make informed decisions
Documentation relevant to a transaction may include product specifications, assay information, origin or source documentation, commercial documents, export documentation and other records applicable to the product and destination.
Applicable licences, certifications and transaction documentation are available to qualified prospective buyers during the appropriate due-diligence stage.
Because documentation can contain commercially sensitive information, transaction-specific records are provided to prospective buyers during the appropriate stage of the enquiry and due-diligence process.
Categories of documentation
- Counterparty records
- Identification of the parties and the individuals authorised to transact.
- Product records
- Form, weight, fineness and, where applicable, assay information for the specific material.
- Source information
- Origin or source documentation available for the material under discussion.
- Commercial documents
- Invoice, agreed delivery terms, payment mechanism and packing details.
- Export documentation
- Records required by the export formalities applicable at origin.
- Destination requirements
- Import and customs requirements applicable on arrival, reviewed at the enquiry stage.
Requirements differ between countries and change over time. Documentation is confirmed for each transaction rather than assumed from a previous shipment.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. Documentation relates to actual transactions and contains commercially sensitive information. It is shared with counterparties at the appropriate stage of due diligence.
