Gold’s role as a safe haven in a time of rising uncertainty was bolstered in 2016 as it returned +9% in USD and +30% in GBP1 with gold ETPs seeing $19.6 USD global inflows2. 2017 looks no different. Gold’s role as a safe haven remains
Gold has already strengthened in 2017, as the “Trump rally” and expectations of US Federal Reserve policy tightening have moderated, while political risks are again coming to the fore. Brexit negotiations, European elections and contentious US foreign policy will impact global markets throughout 2017.
Investors may consider adding gold to their portfolio in preparation for 2017. Beyond capital protection, through its traditional role as a haven asset and portfolio diversifier, gold also offers the prospect of capital growth.
