Explore real estateSWA-G™BFREE acts as your agent throughout the ownership journey: sourcing through authorized UAE retail distributors and bullion dealers, arranging purchase, documenting allocation, securing custody and managing a separate sale when you instruct us.
You choose the metal, bar form, weight and whole-unit quantity. Your account keeps estimates, actual dealer receipts, certificates, bar identities and investment results together.
Open to eligible clients outside the GCC. Relevant UAE, UN, US and European sanctions and business restrictions apply.
SWA-G™ is BFREE’s approach to placing wealth within a reinforcing jurisdiction, currency, sector and asset ecosystem, with clear ownership and a planned exit. UAE gold and silver can be a powerful application of that approach.
Anchor physical wealth within the UAE’s established commercial infrastructure, secure custody arrangements and internationally connected market. Its relatively low inflation supports the case: the Central Bank reported 1.3% headline inflation for 2025. [1]
The dirham is pegged to the US dollar at AED 3.6725 to USD 1. Moving savings from a depreciating home currency into globally USD-priced metals reduces exposure to further depreciation of that currency. Gold and silver can still rise or fall in USD. [2]
The UAE is a major international gold hub, serving wholesale trade, investors, tourists and re-export markets. Statista reports 12.1% of global gold export value in 2025 for the UAE, second to Switzerland’s 21%. These shares describe exports by value. [3] [4]
The Central Bank holds gold in its own reserves: AED 37.902 billion at December 2025. Federal gold-sector policy, Good Delivery standards and responsible-sourcing rules support market integrity and development. This public commitment strengthens the ecosystem in which clients invest. [5] [4]
Choose plain pure-gold or pure-silver bullion bars with recorded weight, purity, provenance and identity. Focus on fine-metal value and disclosed costs. Different bar sizes let you build holdings at your chosen pace.
You own 100% of your identified whole bars after completed purchase and allocation. BFREE acts as your agent, documents ownership and keeps each client’s metal physically segregated. There is no shared or fractional ownership.
Qualifying investment bullion has 0% UAE VAT. The UAE levies no personal income tax, and qualifying personal investment income falls outside corporate-tax business activity. Corporate and home-country tax rules can differ. Metal returns come from price appreciation and currency translation, less expenses; bars pay no interest or rent. [6] [7]
An established dealer network offers routes to sell when you instruct. UAE dealers, including iGold, publish bullion buyback services. BFREE seeks a current buyer bid and manages a separate sale; acceptance, timing and price depend on the bars and buyer’s terms. [8]
Strong anchors support the pursuit of after-cost growth. The choice of metal, purchase price, costs, holding period and obtainable sale bid determine your result. Tourism and bullion demand change over time; SWA-G™ is a disciplined framework for evaluating those conditions.
For eligible individual and corporate clients outside the GCC who want documented ownership of UAE-held physical gold and silver, with the freedom to choose quantities and purchase frequency.
Clients applying SWA-G™ to diversify their wealth across currency, jurisdiction and physical assets while seeking a good return after costs.
Clients seeking an accessible first purchase. Start from the cost of 1g of pure gold, plus disclosed dealer charges and BFREE’s service fee. Available bar sizes are confirmed before approval.
Employees setting aside a chosen portion of salary or benefits for gold or silver. Purchase monthly, occasionally or at another frequency that suits your budget and plans.
Clients seeking ethical, Shariah-compliant investment arrangements: fully paid spot purchases, effective possession, identified whole bars, segregated custody and a separately instructed sale.
Every segment can choose its desired quantity and frequency, subject to the 1g minimum, available whole bars and transaction approval. Each purchase and sale is separately authorized at its execution-day price. There is no pre-agreed buyback, interest, leverage or fractional ownership. Eligibility and relevant sanctions or business restrictions apply.
Compare both metals from 2000, or choose dates. Benchmark performance is distinct from the return on an actual bar purchase.
World Bank monthly international averages plus later verified daily references. Latest plotted observation: unavailable. Daily references and monthly averages are different price observations; neither is an executable buyer bid.

Both increases exceeded the fee-only break-even threshold.
