Secure, discreet and insured loans with instant evaluation, offer and payout—now available from South Africa’s trusted Safe Custody Facility

-- Knox Safe Custody, the Johannesburg-based premier vaulting facility, offers Asset-Based Loans that lets clients borrow against gold and silver bullion, Krugerrands, investment-grade coins and fine jewellery. Built around instant evaluation, on-the-spot offers and same-day payment, the service is delivered from Knox’s advanced, insured facility to ensure unmatched privacy and security for every client. The programme is designed for entrepreneurs, families and collectors who prefer certainty and speed when accessing capital.

Secure, Discreet & Insured
Knox’s lending service is anchored at the company’s high-security facility, engineered to protect valuables against physical and digital risk. The new entrance ensures every client is guided to the right area — lending or custody — without overlap. This thoughtful design enhances privacy while making each experience seamless, secure, and tailored. The facility’s design minimizes exposure from arrival to exit, creating a calm, confidential setting that respects the sensitive nature of wealth management.

Every step prioritizes confidentiality. Assets remain within Knox’s custody ecosystem from intake to storage, handled by trained specialists and tracked through chain-of-custody protocols. On-premises procedures keep items in view during evaluation and secure transfer to vault storage follows immediately once terms are accepted. The experience is careful and convenient from first conversation to final redemption.

Insurance coverage underpins the process, adding a further layer of assurance for clients who expect institutional-grade safeguards when they borrow against bullion, jewellery or other qualifying valuables. Knox’s governance framework and disciplined risk controls support responsible lending while preserving the discretion that clients value most. The result is peace of mind that matches the speed of funding.

Instant Evaluations & Same-Day Liquidity
From first appointment to funding, the process is designed to be simple and fast. Clients begin with a brief online or telephonic inquiry, receive guidance on what to bring, then arrive for a private evaluation where experts verify authenticity and value by non-destructive testing and asset details confirmed.

Evaluations use professional-grade testing in a controlled environment, allowing Knox to issue an offer on the spot. Clients who accept can finalise documents promptly, with funds disbursed the same day through a secure, client-preferred channel.

At Knox, support continues well beyond funding. A dedicated relationship manager is always available for questions, account updates, and settlement planning, ensuring the lending experience is as seamless as the custody service that underpins it. When it’s time to redeem, clients receive the same discretion and clarity they trusted from the very beginning — reinforced by transparent documentation and consistent communication.

A Thought Leader for Modern Wealth Management
Knox’s move into asset-based lending reflects a broader shift in how families and entrepreneurs manage liquidity. Rather than sell strategic holdings during market moves, clients can borrow against them while preserving position, provenance and optionality. The approach helps clients align short-term cash flow with long-term goals without forcing decisions on treasured assets.

As a private vault that buys, sells and stores your precious metals collection from bars, to coins and including jewellery— evaluations are offered for the client’s collection —Knox operates at the intersection of custody and credit. The lending service builds on this proven foundation, linking secure storage with responsible access to capital. Beyond credit, Knox also help clients grow their assets by enabling seamless buying and selling of precious metals — giving both protection and opportunity under one roof. The result is a single, integrated destination where clients can buy, sell, store, and now lend against tangible wealth.

Knox understand that true wealth planning is about more than rates. It’s about speed when people need it, discretion that can be trusted, and security that never wavers. The lending is seamlessly built into an insured custody environment, giving instant access to capital without compromise. Beyond storage and credit, Knox guides your journey with clear insights, market commentary, and direct access to top specialists — ensuring clients have both clarity and confidence every step of the way. “Knox clients expect speed without shortcuts, and that is exactly what this service delivers,” said Wayne Becker, Director of Knox Safe Custody. “Our state-of-the-art testing, secure vaulting and disciplined processes allow us to make confident lending decisions in minutes while keeping assets protected at all times. It is a client-first model that blends precision, privacy and innovation.”

Knox Safe Custody has served South African clients since 2009 as a trusted private vault and bullion dealer, operating with robust governance, responsible lending practices and uncompromising standards. All safe deposit boxes are fully insured within the facility’s controlled environment, reinforcing the promise of security that underlies every loan. The company’s heritage in safe custody informs every interaction, from the moment a client steps through the door to the return of their assets in original condition.
