Different Types of Gold

In Malaysia, gold is usually categorized according to its purity (Karat) and physical form.

Carat (K) shows the percentage of pure gold content in a metal. The higher the carat number, the higher the gold content.

Apart from that, gold is also sold in several forms, namely:

1. Jewelry (916/999):

• Objective: Personal jewelry and emergency savings.
• Profit: Can be worn and styled.
• Lack: There are high wage costs and spread (difference in resale price) which is larger (around 20% – 25%).

2. Gold Investment (Gold Bars/999 Coins):

• Objective: Long term savings and investments.
• Profit: There are no wage costs (only a small premium) and spread thin (around 6% – 10%). More stable value for resale.
• Lack: Cannot be worn as jewelry.

3. Gold Account (Digital):

• Objective: Start saving with small capital (as low as RM10).
• Profit: No need to keep it physically at home (safer), it can be converted into physical gold if the weight is sufficient.

List of Banks Offering Digital Gold

In Malaysia, more and more banks are offering digital or daily gold investment accounts that can be managed directly via banking applications or websites. Among others are:

1. Sharia (Islamic) Bank

Most of these accounts are backed by 999.9 physical gold and allow you to withdraw physical gold if the weight is sufficient.

2. Conventional Banks (Conventional)

Usually these accounts are “paper accounts” (gold paper), where you invest in price movements without physical withdrawals (depending on bank conditions).

• Maybank (MGIA): This is the conventional version (not MIGA-i), the minimum investment is usually 1 gram.
• CIMB Bank (eGIA): Minimum investment starts from 1 gram. Ease of transactions via CIMB Clicks.
• Commercial Banks (eGIA): Offers digital gold accounts with investments as low as 0.1 gram.
• UOB Bank (Gold Savings Account): The minimum investment is usually 1 gram or 5 grams (depending on account type).

Tips for Buying Gold

1. Determine the Purpose: Investment or Ornament?

• For Savings/Profits: Buy it 999 Gold (Ingots/Coins). Already spread (depreciation) is small (around 6-9%), so you make a profit faster when prices rise.
• To Use: Buy it Gold 916 (Jewellery). Keep in mind, jewelry has higher labor costs and depreciation (around 20-25%) when resold.

2. Understanding “Wage Costs” (For Jewelry)

When purchasing 916 gold in a store, the price displayed often does not include labor costs. Actual wage costs are negotiable. Don’t hesitate to ask for a discount on labor costs, especially if you are purchasing heavy or bulky items.

3. Check the “Spread” (Depreciation)

Spread is the difference between the price the store sells you and the price the store buys it back from you.

• Choose low spreads: The lower the spread percentage, the faster you can profit from rising gold prices. Typically, digital gold or bullion accounts have much lower spreads than jewellery.

4. Buy Consistently (DCA Technique)

Don’t wait for the “rock bottom” price because no one knows when that will happen. Use the Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) technique. Buy a little bit every month (example: RM100 a month or 1 gram a month). This will even out your purchasing costs in the long run.

5. Make sure there is an official receipt

Store the purchase receipt safely. The receipt is proof of the purity and weight of the gold. Some shops or banks require the original receipt if you want to resell it at a high price.

6. Don’t be fooled by prices that are too cheap

Gold is a global commodity whose price is almost the same everywhere. If someone offers gold prices 30-50% cheaper than the market price, or promises “monthly returns” from gold savings, it is most likely a scam. Physical gold does not pay dividends; profit only on price increases.

7. Use a Legal and Registered Platform

Make sure the platform used is legal and supervised by authorities such as Bank Negara Malaysia or Bursa Malaysia. Avoid unofficial platforms.
