: SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., – June 3, 2025 – Monetary Metals continues to expand its presence in the United Arab Emirates through a new gold lease to Tajvi Gold Holdings, a jewelry manufacturer and retailer based in Dubai.
This new partnership represents an important milestone for Monetary Metals. It is the company’s first lease to the retail gold jewelry trade in Dubai, a critical hub in the global gold market.
Roughly 46% of the world’s above ground gold supply consists in the form of jewelry1. And approximately 20-30% of all gold traded globally flows through the Dubai region2. Both of these data points underpin the strategic importance of this landmark transaction for Monetary Metals.
The Monetary Metals Gold Yield Marketplace® offers gold-denominated financing to qualified businesses in the precious metals industry, while providing a Yield on Gold, Paid in Gold® to investors and institutions who want to put their gold to work.
Keith Weiner, founder and CEO of Monetary Metals, commented on the announcement,
“We’re thrilled to announce Tajvi Holdings coming on to our platform. The UAE is so important to the global gold trade, and Tajvi has an excellent reputation for craftmanship and fair dealing. This announcement signals that we’re open for business and ready to provide reliable and scalable gold-financing solutions here in Dubai.”
The Monetary Metals true gold lease changes the game for jewelry companies in three important ways. First, the lease is off balance sheet, which improves the jeweler’s financial ratios. Second, the lease amount is set in ounces, not dollars, which is important because in a rising gold price environment it does not require decreasing inventory. Third, it removes the price risk to the jeweler and therefore eliminates the need to hedge, which is more difficult to execute when the gold price is rising.
Tajvi Gold Holdings’ CEO Shameer Shafi shared their excitement about the gold lease with Monetary Metals,
“Monetary Metals is transformative for our business. By accessing gold through this innovative lease structure, we are streamlining our operations, improving our financial position, and eliminating complex hedging strategies. As a result, we can focus more on what we do best—creating world-class jewelry for our customers. We are honored to be the inaugural participant in this forward-thinking initiative.”
