Do not underestimate silver investments

Silver is used particularly in sustainable technologies in industry. And the applications will continue to grow. The investment bank UBS sees great potential in the silver market. For the second half of the year, UBS expects a silver price of up to 38 US dollars per troy ounce. A fall in price would only be of a temporary nature. The automotive industry (electronic components and sensors), the electronics sector, the medical sector and, above all, solar energy use the precious metal. Jewelry accounts for around 18 percent of global consumption worldwide. The proportion of silver in coins and bars is similarly high. Photography used to be an important sector, but today it is only around two percent due to new digital technologies.

Silver is not only essential in the high-tech sector, but the price of the precious metal can also rise, particularly in times of economic uncertainty or inflation. Silver also ensures sustainability through its use in renewable energies and in the field of electromobility. If physical silver is purchased, VAT of 19 percent applies in this country. The tax burden can be reduced if the coins are silver with differential taxation. Sales after a speculation period of one year remain tax-free. Nevertheless, the aspect of safe storage remains. In any case, silver, like gold, serves to diversify a portfolio, even if silver is subject to greater price volatility. Investors should therefore also look at the values of mining companies with silver in the ground.
