The advantages of buying a 1 kg silver bar?

The 1 kg silver bar has a number of advantages.

• It’s a tangible asset with intrinsic value that you can feel and touch. At GOLD AVENUE, we only provide physical silver that is 100% yours. And unlike paper money, which can be printed in unlimited quantities, silver has a finite amount on earth. This scarcity adds to its value.
• Historically, silver has kept its value and has been recognized as a form of money, highlighting its durability and store of value.

• Depending on your investment goals, buying the 1 kg silver bar can be a great option to diversify your portfolio. Precious metals, like silver, are considered a hedge against economic uncertainty and inflation, offering a level of diversification compared to traditional financial assets like stocks and bonds.
• If you have a bigger budget for your silver savings, it might be a good idea to go for the 1 kg silver bar. You’ll pay a lower premium than buying 10 x 100 g silver bars. The premium is subtracted from the bar's melt value, allowing you to maximize your investment.
