About Us

A disciplined approach to precious metals transactions

Gold Capital International is a director-led Australian registered business (ABN 26 700 429 189) that coordinates and introduces gold transactions between qualified international buyers and suppliers, subject to case-by-case due diligence.

Our story

Built to remove risk from cross-border gold trade

GCI was established to address a persistent problem in the precious metals market: qualified buyers struggling to reach credible supply-side counterparties without exposure to unverified intermediaries, incomplete documentation and non-compliant sourcing.

We operate as a transaction coordinator and introducer — not as a deposit taker, financier or investment adviser. Our role is to qualify counterparties, structure documentation, coordinate independent inspection and assay, and manage the procedural path from enquiry to delivery.

Every engagement is governed by signed agreements, applicable law and the compliance framework set out in our Compliance Centre. Where a counterparty, source or document cannot be verified, the engagement does not proceed.

Our mission

To connect qualified gold buyers with gold supply opportunities subject to due diligence, through transparent, compliant and professionally coordinated transactions. Every counterparty relationship is verified case by case before an introduction is made.

Our vision

To be recognised internationally as a trusted coordination partner for responsibly sourced precious metals originating from Africa.

Our commitment to ethical trading

  • Responsible sourcing due diligence aligned with OECD guidance.
  • Zero tolerance for bribery, corruption and facilitation payments.
  • Rejection of any supply linked to conflict, forced or child labour.
  • Full cooperation with lawful regulatory and reporting obligations.

Our values

Principles applied to every transaction

Compliance first

No transaction proceeds without KYC, AML, sanctions screening and signed agreements.

Transparency

Clear procedures, documented stages and no hidden intermediaries in the chain.

Integrity

We decline business that cannot be verified, however commercially attractive.

Responsible sourcing

Aligned with OECD due-diligence guidance for minerals from high-risk areas.

Discretion

Counterparty, supplier and banking information is handled under strict confidentiality.

Professional standards

Institutional documentation, inspection and settlement practices on every deal.

Business structure

How the business is actually structured

GCI is a director-led Australian business. Work beyond the Director's own coordination role is performed by independent third parties engaged for a specific transaction — GCI does not represent that it employs dedicated departments or permanent internal staff.

GCI

Founder & Managing Director

Director-led Australian business

GCI is a director-led Australian registered business. The Founder and Managing Director personally handles enquiries, counterparty qualification, commercial negotiation and transaction coordination. GCI does not currently employ dedicated staff or operate separate internal departments.

GCI

Independent compliance & legal advisers

Engaged per transaction

KYC, AML, sanctions screening support and legal review are provided by independent professional advisers and contractors, engaged separately where a specific transaction requires them. They are not employees of GCI.

GCI

Independent assay & inspection providers

Engaged per consignment

Assay, inspection and verification are carried out by independent laboratories and inspectors appointed for a given consignment. GCI does not perform assay or issue certificates of analysis.

GCI

Independent logistics, security & insurance providers

Engaged per shipment

Secure transport, vaulting, customs clearance and insurance are arranged with independent licensed providers when a transaction reaches that stage. Availability, cover and terms are confirmed by those providers, not by GCI.
