Mined gold are normally in the ownership of the mining company or the ones who finances their activities, up until the time they are sent to refineries. Once refined, gold ownership is normally transferred to bullion banks. After refining rough gold into gold bars from approved gold refineries, the goods are typically taken into bullion banks for vaulting and storing purposes.

Bullion banks are aplenty in a number of countries and major cities like the US, UK, China, Australia, India and Dubai, U.A.E.

Bullion banks act as the middle party in the gold trading industry. When miners find gold, they often sell it to bigger firms that can refine the gold into different states of purity. Then these firms sell it to bullion banks.

The reason why gold has to go to a bank before it is sold to consumers is because it is not an everyday necessity. Gold buying and selling is not a daily activity for most people. The bullion banks are there to vault and store the gold until such time when a consumer is need of them.

Bullion banks acts as the main storage facility for gold. But aside form that, they also act as the standard trading entity for the physical body of the metal. Bullion banks sell their gold to consumers such as big jewelry businesses, gold investors, central banks of different countries and others.

They also act responsible for the transfer of thee physical gold from one location to another. If a customer from country A wants to buy gold from them, but wants the gold to be sent on their facilities in country B, the bullion banks will be the one to do forwarding, transportation and security until a clearance of deal is achieved.
