04 — FAQ

Institutional FAQ

01Does AurumShield take custody of my funds?

No. AurumShield provides the governance and settlement logic; funds move through traditional, secure institutional banking rails.

02How is the final purchase price determined?

Valuations are tied to recognized precious metals pricing and finalized against the definitive assay report.

03Is AurumShield a fund or investment product?

No. AurumShield is transaction infrastructure. It does not pool assets, manage investments, or operate as a fund. It provides the execution, approval, settlement, and custody control layer through which institutional physical gold transactions are allowed to clear.

04How does AurumShield bring DvP-style discipline to physical gold?

Capital and title do not move independently. The settlement sequence requires that physical verification, compliance standing, custody confirmation, and funding are all verified before release conditions are evaluated. If any condition is unmet, the transaction does not advance.

05How are permissions and approvals controlled?

AurumShield enforces maker-checker role separation. No single user can both initiate and approve a trade. The authorization model uses a progressive capability ladder — each level of access is unlocked only after relevant compliance and verification requirements are satisfied.

06How does institutional onboarding work?

Prospective counterparties submit an institutional access request and undergo structured onboarding: entity verification, LEI validation, beneficial ownership mapping, sanctions screening, and documentation review. Access is granted on the basis of counterparty qualification, not self-service registration.
