    Not good :/

    Interesting to see they use the NIA "Best Bullion Award" logo on their website. I don't see them being reviewed by NIA anywhere.

    just goes to show you cannot trust anyone with your money, all good intentions and reputations count for nothing when GREED takes over. Be your own 'central bank'

    By the sounds of it the only bullion was in their name. This was paper trading (gold futures, etc).

    Agreed. I read this article months ago, and don't even live in NZ. If you are happy to remain seated inside the car even after one of the wheels has fallen off, then don't complain if the car ends up crashing a short while later.
