aShareX focus: Diamonds & Precious Gems

Diamonds are an Investors Best Friend

Investing in diamonds and precious gems has long been considered an alternative asset class offering potential diversification and stores of value. Gemstone investments can provide unique opportunities for investors seeking to expand and diversify their portfolios with assets featuring low correlations to traditional investments like stocks and bonds. However, investment-grade gemstones have historically only been available to the select few. Fractionalizing ownership expands investment opportunities in this asset class to a broader range of investors who may not have the resources to purchase these assets in their entirety.

Accessibility: Fractionalizing ownership makes investing in diamonds and precious gems more accessible to a wide range of investors by reducing key barriers to entry, such as financial wherewithal and access to investment-grade assets.

Diversification: Fractional ownership empowers investors to diversify their portfolios with alternative assets like gemstones, potentially reducing overall portfolio risk.

Administration: aShareX handles the legal and administrative aspects of fractional ownership, making it easy for investors to access precious gems and similar asset types.

Inflation Hedge: Like other tangible assets, diamonds and precious gems can serve as a hedge against inflation.

Long-Term Appreciation Potential: Historically, high-quality, investment-grade gemstones have shown steady value appreciation potential.
