Precious Metals Reserve Integrity Program

This Program ensures the integrity and security of the Fund's tangible asset base (gold and silver) as mandated by Article 3.1. By financing secure vault infrastructure, independent assaying services, and transparent audit mechanisms, the Fund maintains the trust of Members and partners. All projects must prioritize asset security, verification accuracy, and alignment with the Fund's non-speculative store of value mission.

2. Conduct quarterly independent assays and valuations per Article 15.2.
3. Implement blockchain or secure ledger tracking for asset movement and custody.
4. Reduce custody and verification costs through shared infrastructure among Members.
