How private client storage works

Your holdings follow a documented chain of custody from your hands to the vault shelf.

  1. Arrange. A Brink's specialist scopes what you're storing, where you want it held, and how you'll want to access it. You choose the vault location that fits your strategy.

  2. Transport. Brink's collects your assets through our secure logistics network, or receives them from your dealer or refiner, with custody documented at every handoff.

  3. Store and verify. Your holdings are logged, stored in segregated space under your name, and reflected in your reporting. Track-and-trace shows you movements, while inventory records show you exactly what sits on the shelf.

Where you store it matters as much as what you own

Physical assets concentrate risk in their location. Each of the usual answers has a flaw you end up living with:

  • Home storage. A residential safe protects against opportunists — not professionals — and homeowners’ policies rarely cover the full value of bullion or collectibles.
  • Bank safe deposit boxes. Access ends when branch hours close. Contents typically aren't insured by the bank, and boxes cap out at sizes that don't fit larger holdings.
  • Self-storage and private safes. Security varies facility by facility, and few offer documented custody, audited inventory, or any path to move assets securely.

Brink's private client storage removes the compromise. You get institutional-grade security built for these assets, without maintaining any of the infrastructure behind it. We offer the protection a bank vault implies, plus the access, capacity, and records a safe deposit box can't.

What Brink’s private client storage gives you

Your holdings are stored as your property, separate from anyone else's and identified as yours in the inventory records. What you deposit is what you get back: the same bars, the same coins, the same items.

When you need an item shipped, sold, or moved between locations, Brink's vault teams pick, pack, and dispatch it through the same secure network that brought it in. You never have to visit a facility to make your assets move.

Brink's operates vaulting facilities in major markets around the world, so you can hold assets close to home, close to where you trade, or deliberately spread across jurisdictions. Your specialist helps you pick the locations that fit your strategy.

Every facility runs the same security discipline:

• 24-hour surveillance and monitoring
• Layered access control and vetted personnel
• Climate-controlled storage space
• Documented inventory and audit practices
• Direct integration with Brink's armored transport network
• Locations selected for security and discretion

You see what you hold and what's moving without calling anyone. Inventory reporting covers your positions by location, and track-and-trace follows any item in transit between facilities or out for delivery.

Your holdings are protected by coverage arranged for high-value stored assets, backed by the security practices that make that coverage possible. Your specialist confirms the terms for your specific holdings.

Storage shouldn't lock you in. Add newly purchased metals directly from your dealer or refiner, transfer holdings to a buyer without the assets leaving the vault, or take physical delivery through Brink's secure transport when you want them in hand.

Brink’s private client storage is built around precious metals and extends to other assets that justify vault-grade custody:

• Investment-grade bullion bars and coins
• Numismatic and collectible coins
• Jewelry and loose gemstones
• Banknotes and high-value collectibles
• Other high-value assets, scoped with your specialist

Who uses Brink’s private client storage

Private individuals and collectors

Hold bullion, coins, jewelry, and other valuables in institutional-grade storage without building a security setup at home. Start with a single deposit and scale as your holdings grow; the vault doesn't care whether you own one coin or one pallet.

Family offices and wealth advisors

Give clients allocated physical positions with the reporting, documentation, and custody records their portfolios require. One storage relationship covers multiple clients, locations, and reporting needs.

Estate executors and trustees

Secure high-value assets during administration, with the inventory records and documented custody that beneficiaries and courts expect. When distribution comes, Brink's handles delivery to each beneficiary through the same secure network.

Institutions and funds

Store metal backing funds or balance sheet positions in segregated space, with the audit trail that institutional governance demands. Pick-and-pack operations support settlement and redemption without moving your whole position.
