Investing in Diamonds
In a scenario of international economic crisis, the desire is to protect one's assets in order to guarantee the preservation of one's future, therefore great caution is necessary in choosing the right investment.
The investment diamond is ideal for those looking for a safe haven with stable growth of the invested capital. The investment diamond is part of a highly prestigious international market, extremely solid and constantly growing.
The advantages of investing in diamonds are many:
- It has constant growth and its price is destined to increase naturally, also due to the progressive exhaustion of the main diamond deposits.
- It is not subject to political/currency influences.
- It can be liquidated throughout the world, even in the most difficult political and social situations, as long as it is accompanied by an internationally recognized certificate.
- It is a unique and prestigious asset and has the characteristic of being able to be "brought" during the period of possession.
- The diamond is a free circulation asset subject to VAT, not taxable and capital gains are not to be declared, the returns are net.
- It is an Ethical Investment and all the investment diamonds offered by CR Gioielli are Conflict Free, that is, they comply with the United Nations resolutions that require the certification of provenance of diamonds from legal sources.
Only a few entities are able to keep the market in constant performance, ensuring a constantly growing price level. Last year, the diamond industry had a turnover of 93 billion dollars. De Beers, through its sales and commercial promotion branch with the DTC Diamond Trading Company, controlled as much as 92% of the market: that is to say, it held an almost absolute monopoly. The quantity of rough diamonds to be brought to processing is regulated according to the market trend, so that, even in periods of strong depression, diamond prices can remain stable without suffering any type of decline.
All this has always guaranteed constant growth over time, which in recent years has even exceeded inflation by 2.1-2.2%.
The Diamond market is regulated by various International Price Lists, but the most important and significant of all is the RAPAPORT DIAMOND REPORT. This Price List is based on solid real quotations for single diamonds where the seriousness and professionalism of the selling company is demonstrated by offering diamonds certified by esteemed and world-renowned laboratories.
The investment offered must contain diamonds that are easily resold so that the investor can quickly monetize if necessary; furthermore, the investment is such if the purchase price is in line with the market (a comparison of prices with equal characteristics allows you to identify the most competitive company). In summary, we can conclude that the "goodness" of the investment is entrusted primarily to the seriousness of the company from which it is purchased.
Choosing the characteristics of the diamonds to purchase is fundamental as only 1.5-1.9% have the characteristics of the investment diamond.
The investment must be seen in the MEDIUM-LONG term and in any case not less than 6 years, as by its nature it is not a speculative investment. For easier and quicker resale, it is advisable to diversify the purchase according to the different characteristics such as weight, color and purity, preferably not exceeding a purchase threshold for a single diamond of no more than 95-100 thousand Euros.
