🎓

Market Insight

Why investors are rethinking traditional portfolios

Global inflation, currency volatility, and geopolitical instability have highlighted the limitations of traditional 60/40 equity-bond portfolios. A new generation of investors is turning to real assets — gold, commodities, and digital currencies — to balance their exposure.

At Global Capital, we've built a platform that gives every investor access to the diversification tools once reserved for institutional players.

About Us

A trusted partner
for global investors

Founded in 2009, Global Capital has grown from a specialist UK boutique into an internationally respected alternative investment platform.

Our Story

Built in the aftermath of a financial crisis

Global Capital was founded in the wake of the 2008 global financial crisis — a period that revealed just how exposed ordinary investors were to systemic risks they had never been warned about.

Our founders — veterans of London's institutional investment and commodity trading desks — set out to build something different: a transparent, asset-backed investment platform that puts clients' long-term security first.

Today, we serve over 8,500 clients across 40 countries, managing more than £2.4 billion in diversified assets from our headquarters in the City of London.

We invest in research, not speculation. Our investment committee meets weekly to review macroeconomic conditions, risk models, and asset class outlooks before any allocation is made.

03

Absolute Integrity

We operate at the highest levels of regulatory compliance and ethical conduct. We will never recommend a product we do not believe is genuinely right for a client's situation.

Carefully structured investment products across fixed income, precious metals, commodities, and digital assets.

💰
Fixed Rate | Low–Medium Risk

Fixed Term Deposits

Structured, fixed-rate deposits offering competitive returns over defined investment terms.

Annual Rate

7.9% p.a.

Available Terms

6, 12, 24 months

Minimum Investment

£10,000

Interest Payment

Monthly or at maturity

Product Features

  • Choice of 6, 12, or 24-month terms
  • Monthly interest payment option
  • Early redemption subject to terms and penalty
  • Dedicated account manager throughout term
  • Online portal for real-time balance tracking

Who Is This For?

Our Fixed Term Deposits are well suited to investors seeking stable, predictable income above typical savings rates, who are comfortable locking in capital for a defined period and have a low to medium risk appetite.

⚠️ Important Risk Information Capital is at risk. The 7.9% rate applies to selected terms and is subject to eligibility and prevailing market conditions. Unlike bank savings accounts, deposits with Global Capital are not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). Please read the full product disclosure document before investing. Past returns are not a guarantee of future performance.
🥇
Hard Asset | Medium Risk

Gold Investment

Physical gold exposure and gold-linked instruments — the world's oldest and most enduring store of value.

Return Type

Market rate

Minimum Investment

£5,000

Access

T+2 settlement

Storage

Allocated vault custody

Product Features

  • Allocated physical gold in LBMA-approved vaults
  • Gold ETF and fund exposure options
  • Real-time spot price tracking via client portal
  • Fully insured vault custody
  • Transparent storage and management fees
  • Option to take physical delivery (minimums apply)

Why Gold?

Gold has historically served as a hedge against inflation, currency debasement, and geopolitical uncertainty. During periods of market stress, gold prices have typically held firm or appreciated while equities declined.

⚠️ Important Risk Information The price of gold can fall as well as rise. Returns are not guaranteed. Gold is denominated in US dollars, so GBP-based investors also carry currency risk. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.
🛢️
Commodity | Medium–High Risk

Crude Oil Investment

Gain structured exposure to global energy markets through a range of oil-linked investment instruments.

Return Type

Market rate

Minimum Investment

£5,000

Instruments

Product Features

  • Exposure to Brent Crude and WTI benchmarks
  • Exchange-traded instruments for liquidity
  • Structured notes with defined risk parameters
  • Monthly portfolio performance reports
  • Access to our commodities research desk
  • Rebalancing and hedging advisory available

Why Oil?

Energy commodities offer low correlation to traditional equity markets, providing genuine portfolio diversification. In inflationary environments, commodity prices have historically outperformed bonds and cash holdings significantly.

⚠️ Important Risk Information Commodity prices are highly volatile and can fall sharply. Crude oil investments carry medium-to-high risk. Please read the Key Information Document before proceeding.
₿
Digital Asset | High Risk

Bitcoin Investment

Institutional-grade Bitcoin exposure with secure custody, designed for investors seeking digital asset diversification.

Return Type

Market rate

  • Institutional-grade cold storage custody
  • Multi-signature wallet security protocol
  • Real-time Bitcoin price tracking via client portal
  • Compliant with UK FCA digital asset guidance
  • Insurance coverage on custodied assets
  • Quarterly digital asset market reports

Why Bitcoin?

With a fixed supply of 21 million coins, Bitcoin is a scarce, decentralised asset that operates independently of any central bank monetary policy. A small allocation can meaningfully alter a portfolio's risk-return profile.

⚠️ Important Risk Information Cryptoassets are highly volatile and largely unregulated. Losses can be total. Cryptoassets are not protected by the FSCS. This product is only suitable for investors who fully understand the risks involved, including the potential to lose 100% of their investment.
Education

Why diversify
beyond the ordinary?

Understanding why the traditional investment playbook may not be enough in today's environment.

The Challenge

The world has changed. Portfolios haven't.

For decades, the conventional wisdom was simple: hold equities for growth, bonds for stability, and cash for liquidity. For most of the 20th century, this worked — because inflation was tame, interest rates were manageable, and geopolitical risk was largely contained.

The 2020s have shattered these assumptions. Inflation has surged to multi-decade highs. Government debt levels are at historic peaks. Geopolitical tensions introduce real structural uncertainty. In this environment, a broader investment toolkit is essential.

Key Themes

Four forces reshaping wealth

📈

Persistent Inflation

Central banks have expanded their balance sheets dramatically since 2008. The long-run consequence is currency debasement — inflation that erodes purchasing power quietly, year after year. Real assets like gold and commodities have historically preserved purchasing power through inflationary periods.

🌐

Geopolitical Fragmentation

The post-1990 era of relative stability is giving way to a more fragmented, multipolar world. Trade route disruptions, sanctions regimes, energy supply constraints, and great-power competition all introduce risk to equity and bond markets — while often benefiting safe-haven assets and commodities.

💱

Currency Debasement

Since 1971, no major currency is backed by physical assets. Governments can create money in large quantities. Over long timeframes, the purchasing power of fiat currencies reliably declines. Assets with fixed or constrained supply — such as gold and Bitcoin — offer a structural hedge against this dynamic.

🏦

Banking System Fragility

The collapse of SVB, Credit Suisse's forced acquisition, and concerns about European banking stability serve as reminders that deposit-based savings carry real counterparty risk. Diversifying wealth across asset classes and institutions is increasingly important for sophisticated investors.

Historical Context

Real assets vs. cash over 20 years

Over the past two decades, investors with meaningful allocations to real assets — gold, oil, and commodities — consistently outpaced those relying solely on cash or government bonds after accounting for inflation.

Asset performance graph
The Solution

Diversification is not a luxury

A well-constructed portfolio includes assets that respond differently to the same economic conditions. When equities fall, gold often rises. When currencies weaken, commodities often strengthen.

At Global Capital, we help you build a portfolio calibrated to your risk tolerance, investment horizon, and personal circumstances — drawing on the full range of asset classes on our platform.
