About Alloy Academy

Understand the metal behind the market.

Alloy Academy was created to explain the physical side of precious metals with the same emphasis on specificity, ownership and settlement that defines the work of Alloy Capital Commodities Inc.

The Academy

is educational.

The desk

is commercial.

Together, they address two different questions:

How does physical precious-metal ownership work?

and

How do I transact in physical metal?

Why Alloy Academy exists

The precious-metals market uses familiar words — gold, spot, storage, ownership — but the operational meaning behind those words can vary considerably.

Alloy Academy exists to make those distinctions understandable.

A spot price is not the same thing as a delivered bar price.

Metal exposure is not necessarily the same thing as ownership of identified metal.

Storage is not necessarily allocated custody.

A balance on a statement is not necessarily a serial-numbered bar.
