How can I contact a bullion dealer?

The term “bullion dealer” generally refers to investment banks dealing in bullion. They may also be termed “bullion banks” and are members of the London Bullion Market Association. Bullion banks are “wholesale” suppliers and as such deal in large quantities (typically over 1000 ounces). They may service private clients wishing to deal in large quantities but normally this trade would occur via the client’s private bank. It’s worth noting that although only the London address and telephone number may be provided for some bullion dealers, they are large organisations and most have offices around the world. Investors wishing to deal in relatively small amounts of bullion coins and bars should examine the options available to them – see our How to Buy area. Contact details for a number of gold dealers trading smaller amounts of bullion coins and bars to the general public are available in our Where to Buy section.
