Alternative to SGB

Hi All,

I have invested close to 5Lakhs in SGBs , main purpose to use as collateral .

Now GOI stopped this scheme and I am wondering what to do ?

couldn’t find better alternatives than SGB !!

Note : Give suggestions through option sellers perspective pls !

It is still acceptable as collateral.

I guess you are asking what to buy with fresh capital.
If you insist on gold only, then GOLDCASE or GOLDBEES can be considered.

yes , but I am looking for alternatives

not fixed on gold ,
any alternative which can be acceptable as collateral + can give good returns

Liquid Bees. You can pledge it with 6% haircut. It is cash equivalent and hence can be used for writing options

@Priya_Hala Thanks for suggestion.

liquid bees gives us very less return 2-4% , also returns they give in decimal holdings as far as I know . till it becomes 1unit you can’t sell I guess .

Yes, returns are only around 4%. But you can use the pledged collateral as cash equivalent. Partial units cannot be sold. Only multiples of 1. Highly liquid and risk free. Tax benefits too…
