What are LBMA gold bars?

What does LBMA gold mean?

LBMA gold bars are gold bars that meet strict quality and purity requirements set by the LBMA. The LBMA stands for the London Bullion Market Association and is an international trade association that represents the wholesale gold and silver markets in London, both of which are among the most important bullion markets in the world.

Specifications and quality requirements of LBMA gold

The specifications for LBMA gold include requirements for the weight, dimensions, and purity of gold bars. For example, a gold bar that is considered LBMA compliant must have a purity of 99.9% gold or higher. In addition, the bars must be produced by a refinery that is on LBMA's Good Delivery List. This list includes the names of recognized refineries that meet the LBMA's high standards of consistency in quality, ethical business practices, and responsible sourcing.
