MARKETS & SOLUTIONS

Over the years we have navigated different markets and addressed issues to which we have provided solutions and created projects.

The current ones are summarized on this page, also connecting Facebook Pages where you will find past documentation: if you are interested in receiving one or some of these contributions, contact us and they will be sent to you by email.

OIL

We have been present in the oil market for 40 years: initially as specialist consultants in the sector (IT, marketing, sales network) for some international majors and, since 2000, as official agents for the search for both suppliers and potential buyers.

Currently, while constantly maintaining direct relationships with international and government majors, we represent an international trading company (based in Dubai-UAE and with a commercial branch in Switzerland) that has some contracts in place for the acquisition, and also for the allocation at international refineries, of petroleum products (from crude oil to the main derivatives, such as Aviation Kerosene Jet Fuel A1, EN590 10ppm, LNG).

The seller's commercial offer can be summarized in the following points:

1) Sale of petroleum products not coming from refineries, companies, countries, subject to international embargo by the European Union.

2) Sale of products with CIF procedure, destination mainly European Ports (ARA/MED), North Africa, Arabian Peninsula.

3) No payment and/or supply costs for the buyer until the cargo arrives at the destination port.

4) Payment for the goods at the port of arrival, after verification by a specialized company appointed by the buyer regarding the quantity and quality and before injection into the tanks of the tank farm or the buyer's ship or signing a shipping contract with the same shipping company that transported the goods from the port of departure to the port of arrival. With the payment of the goods, the buyer becomes "owner" and all subsequent costs and charges will be at his expense.

5) As a guarantee of payment for the goods, under point 4), the seller is required to issue by the buyer's bank the MT 705 (special swift message type that is used by issuing banks when issuing a pre-advice of a letter of credit), which has a cost of 20/25 USD for the customer. This document contains all the seller's obligations and the list of documents that must be sent, via Swift between the two banks, to subsequently issue the required guarantee.

6) The complete Sales Procedure is sent upon request of the potential buyer.

CRYPTOCURRENCIES

Over the last decade, several GBMC customers have begun to ask us for information and support in cryptocurrency transactions, both as a trading or investment tool and as a form of payment.

Since we cannot improvise as “experts” overnight, we have relied on a Swiss Financial Group, whose managers we personally and directly know, who have been present in this market since its inception.

In a joint venture with this Swiss Organization, GBMC is able to provide professional information on the world of cryptocurrencies and propose Bank to Bank transactions only at the Lugano and Zurich offices, as Swiss legislation is the most protective towards the buyer.

The “modus operandi” is very simple and direct:

- After the initial approach between the intermediaries and GBMC, a “face to face” meeting is proposed with the presence of the buyer’s representative (who will then physically supervise the first test transaction) at the seller’s Swiss office.

- During the meeting in Switzerland, the buyer's needs will be analyzed, some information will be verified if necessary and, if the meeting is considered positive by both parties, an operational plan will be defined to be started within 15 days with a first test transaction.

- The first test transaction will be carried out at a Swiss branch of the seller, in the presence of the two agents managing the operation and in line with the buyer (if not physically present) and with his bank officer.

- Upon successful completion of the test transaction, the relative contract will be signed and the plan for subsequent transactions will be defined, which will absolutely not require the physical presence of the parties as they will be carried out directly by the respective bank officers.

GOLD

Since the late 90s, GBMC has begun to deal with the market of precious raw materials, in particular diamonds, gold and copper: the so-called white gold, yellow gold, red gold as well as black gold (oil).

In these markets, GBMC is present as an agent for important international buyers, located in the USA and Europe, and who are represented by refineries and companies cutting and transforming the raw material.

Therefore, the main activity of GBMC is to search for potential suppliers of the raw material, verify their compliance (both of the companies and of the extraction chain) which must comply with the regulations issued by the International Organizations for the protection of workers, in particular minors.

In the Gold Marlet, our main customers (located in New York-USA, Belgium and Switzerland) require compliance with the regulations issued by the LBMA body and purchase only with the CIF procedure.

The procedure listed here is in line with what is provided for by the FED, the Swiss Laws and the World Gold Council.

The FED and World Gold Council international procedure impose that:
1.The Seller (must be Owner of the Gold) or his Mandate issues a Full Corporate Offer. All Gold metal offers must show the Seller’s coordinates clearly.
2.Only the Seller or his legal mandates may issue a Gold offer and if it is the mandate issuing it, it must be accompanied by the letter evidencing the receipt of mandate authorization from the Seller.
3.All offers received from non-authorized intermediaries must be automatically rejected.
4.The International Precious Metals Legislation does not allow buyers to first send a letter of Purchase Intent (LOI) because it is considered a market soliciting and is strictly forbidden.
5.Seller or seller’s mandate must move first with an offer which should include metal license details and banking.The procedure listed here is specific as to what was issued by the FED, Swiss Law Rules and the World Gold Council.

That being said, for example, the procedure for raw gold transactions for Belgian customers provides:
• CIF DDP Brussels.
• All transactions are made in € or £ only.
• Seller's bank accounts in Europe, or bank correspondents in Europe.
• The first purchase, transaction is made at the refinery, in the presence of the buyer and seller.
• At the level of financial guarantees, a SBLC (non-transferable) can be issued. Except for the first transaction.

For the first test shipment and subsequent ones, the following original documents are required:

• Four (4) copies of Commercial Invoice.
• Packing List (in numbered packages of XX KG) for minimum XX KG per trip.
• Certificate of Assay showing purity of the gold.
• Certificate of Ownership.
• Certificate of Origin.
• Evidence of payment of Customs Duty Payment IN THE Country of Origin.
• EURO1 (Origin of the Goods traffic destined certification) (Free zone Brinks Brussels).
• Product in transit at Refinerie (the costs for the transfer from the Free Zone Area of the Arrival Airport to the Refinery, via Brinks, are borne by the buyer).
• Export Permits.
• Airway Bill.
• At the level of financial guarantees, for the first trial transaction a BF (Block Fund) can be issued on Seller's bank accounts in Europe, or bank correspondents in Europe.
