Physical gold

Gold doré. Structured for Dubai.

Cap-Connect develops direct and intermediary relationships with gold suppliers across Africa, selecting transactions capable of meeting the company's commercial, compliance and documentation requirements. The objective is not simply to identify available gold. It is to identify transactions that can be independently assessed, financed, transported and completed through a credible Dubai exit route.

What we buy

Our focus.

Cap-Connect's principal physical commodity focus is gold doré suitable for export and subsequent refining in Dubai.

We consider both trial transactions and repeat contractual supply arrangements.

Each opportunity is evaluated independently. Quantity, purity, pricing, origin, documentation, export route and delivery terms must be commercially acceptable before Cap-Connect proceeds.

Where we operate

African origination, Dubai execution.

Cap-Connect works with approved producers, licensed exporters and established aggregators in African gold-producing jurisdictions. Each jurisdiction carries its own export, permitting and documentary requirements, and transactions are structured accordingly.

Execution, import coordination, independent assay and settlement take place in Dubai, one of the world's principal centres for physical gold trading and refining.

CIF Dubai

A clearly defined delivery point.

Cap-Connect's preferred model is to purchase qualifying gold on agreed CIF Dubai terms, creating a clear commercial framework between the origin country and the point of delivery in the UAE.

The precise responsibilities, transfer of risk, documentation, insurance and settlement mechanics are defined in the contract for each transaction.

Responsible sourcing

Origin matters as much as price.

Cap-Connect expects gold to be lawfully produced, lawfully exported and capable of being evidenced through appropriate origin and permitting documentation.

Counterparty onboarding covers corporate standing, beneficial ownership, sanctions screening and AML checks. Transactions that cannot be documented to an acceptable standard are declined, irrespective of the commercial terms offered.
