Individuals and businesses can even purchase gold to be in an existing SIPP (self-invested personal pension) or SASS (small, self-administered scheme) pension scheme, which must be approved in advance of any purchase by your pension’s administrator or trustee. Baird & Co also offers clients metal account facilities in both allocated and unallocated form.

It’s also a very notable year for the British public with the celebrations for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee — as such Baird & Co will be launching a Platinum Jubilee range.
