Valoris Geneva Freeport

Register for allocated precious metals and tangible assets held in freeport or vault custody, for vault operators, bullion dealers and private banks.

Purpose

Geneva Freeport links each digital entitlement to an identified physical item (bar number, weight, fineness, location) held by a custodian, so that holders, custodian and bank see the same record of who owns what.

Legal framework it fits

Swiss custody and deposit law (CO Art. 472 ff.) for the underlying assets
Ledger-based securities under CO Art. 973d where entitlements are issued as securities
Precious-metals rules apply to the dealer or assayer, not to the software (Precious Metals Control Act)
AML duties stay with the dealer or financial intermediary

Core features

Bar-level inventory with serial number, weight and fineness
Allocated entitlements per holder, no pooling
Custodian attestation and periodic reconciliation
Transfer restrictions and freeze
Audit export for vault audits

Functions that can be added under this legal order

Insurance certificate tracking
Redemption / physical delivery workflow
White-label portal for the vault operator
