New perspectives. Same values.
By joining the Singapore Bullion Market Association (SBMA), Helveticor expands its international reach in the precious metals trade and opens the door to one of the world’s most dynamic markets. Singapore has long been regarded as a key hub for global precious metals trading – a place where precision, technology, and trust converge – values that are equally central to Helveticor.
This membership marks another milestone in our global development and reflects our clear commitment to sustainable, transparent, and responsible market structures.
Singapore – the heart of the Asian precious metals market
Few places embody economic stability and international openness as strongly as Singapore. With its state-of-the-art infrastructure, robust legal framework, and high standards of security and compliance, the city-state has become a magnet for banks, traders, and logistics providers.
The Singapore Bullion Market Association (SBMA) brings all these players together within a single network.
Its mission: to strengthen the regional precious metals market, foster innovation, and advance global standards.
By joining, Helveticor becomes part of a network that connects not only markets but also values – reliability, professionalism, and integrity.
The vision behind Helveticor’s membership
Our work does not end at national borders – it begins where markets, people, and responsibility come together. With our SBMA membership, we aim to actively shape this connection.
We pursue three key goals:
1. Sharing knowledge – through direct exchange with Asian industry experts, authorities, and trading partners.
2. Promoting standards – by contributing our European expertise in security, compliance, and logistics.
3. Building bridges – between different markets, mindsets, and quality expectations.
Because sustainable progress emerges where people learn from one another – not merely coexist.
Strong connections are built through shared responsibility.
By joining the SBMA, we are not merely taking on a role within the network – we are taking on responsibility. Responsibility for fostering dialogue between East and West. Responsibility for advancing global standards. And responsibility for ensuring that trust endures across continents.
A network is more than the sum of its members. It thrives on the mindset and commitment each one brings.
Values that connect markets
In the precious metals trade, security, transparency, and reliability are key. Yet in Asia, another crucial element comes into play: relationship orientation.
Business relationships are nurtured over years, and trust grows through consistency rather than short-term success. This mindset perfectly aligns with our own philosophy.
At Helveticor, long-term trust always takes precedence over short-term profit. We believe that true partnerships are built on lived integrity and that quality only reveals its real value when it is consistently demonstrated.
The significance of the SBMA for the global market
The SBMA is more than an association – it is a driving force for an entire region that is gaining increasing global importance. In Singapore, decisions are made about how precious metals will be traded, processed, and transported in the future.
Through our membership, we gain access to:
- a direct network of leading market players in Asia
- up-to-date regulatory developments and market insights
- cooperation platforms for trade, compliance, and logistics
This means we are closer to the issues shaping the industry – enabling us to prepare our clients early for new developments.
A global network – local roots
While our operational structures remain firmly rooted in Switzerland, our SBMA membership broadens our perspective on international markets. This combination – Swiss precision and Asian dynamism – is a key success factor in an increasingly globalized industry.
For our partners, this means one thing above all: Helveticor remains what it has always been – a reliable security service provider.
But one that thinks and acts beyond borders.
Quality is not created through control – but through mindset.
We believe that standards only have an impact when they are truly lived.
That’s why our SBMA membership is not just a symbol on paper, but a commitment to lived quality – day after day, assignment after assignment.
It’s not about ticking boxes, but about understanding, improving, and making processes transparent.
Because trust is built where high standards meet consistency and integrity means more than just a promise.
How our customers benefit from this
Our membership brings tangible benefits – far beyond the symbolic:
Greater market access: Direct contact with international producers, traders, and institutions enhances our operational flexibility.
Greater knowledge: Early insights into regulatory developments and market changes.
Greater security: Collaboration with global compliance partners continuously improves our processes.
Greater perspectives: Understanding diverse market mechanisms fosters holistic solutions – from Asia to Europe.
We connect markets – but act for people.
Whether trader, bank, or investor – behind every assignment lies a need for security, responsibility, and trust.
These needs are universal – whether in Zurich, Hong Kong, or Singapore.
Our work with precious metals is therefore always, at its core, work for people – for their security, their values, and their future.
Looking to the future
Membership in the Singapore Bullion Market Association is not an endpoint – it’s a beginning.
A beginning of deeper exchange, greater global responsibility, and the continuous advancement of our standards.
Helveticor remains true to its core principle: Security in every phase – now also in one of the world’s most important markets.
With our SBMA membership, we are strengthening not only our international presence but also our commitment:
transparency, trust, and integrity – wherever precious metals move.
