GoldCore is an Irish bullion broker founded in 2003. The company is headquartered in Dublin, Ireland and has offices in London, United Kingdom.[1]

History

Founded by Mark O'Byrne and Stephen Flood in 2003, GoldCore is a precious metals broker, serving clients in over 45 countries and with over $110 million in assets under management and storage. The company specialises in storage for high net worth investors and family offices and on B2B delivery and storage platforms for financial institutions. Originally incorporated as Gold and Silver Investments Limited, trading as Gold Investments, the company began operations and trading in small premises within Dublin, Ireland. The company’s analysis of markets led to growing concerns in 2004 and 2005 about the very high levels of debt being seen in the UK, U.S. and internationally. During this time, the company began to warn clients and to publicly warn about the risks this would pose to the global financial system and the economy, raising the possibility of a global financial crisis.[2][3][4]

Market Analysis and Growth

The company was awarded Moneymate & Investor Magazine Financial Analyst of the Year 2006 for research including warnings regarding property bubbles in the UK, Ireland and the U.S. In 2008, the company expanded into the UK with a London office,[5] receiving media coverage from CNN [6] and others. The company participated in the Reuters Precious Metals Poll[7] and the Bloomberg Gold Survey in April 2013. Irish brand agency Creative Inc rebranded the company in 2009 and it became GoldCore Limited trading as GoldCore. The rebranding won an international award.[8] In 2011, GoldCore expanded its headquarters by relocating to FitzWilliam Square owing to the need for extra office space.[9]

Consulting and Education

GoldCore now has an international media profile and has been quoted and interviewed by Bloomberg[10] amongst others. The company educates its community about the importance of physical gold rather than derivatives or paper gold and the importance of gold as a safe haven, alongside the importance of investment diversification.[11][12][13]
