Welcome to the first issue of the new magazine GOLD & WEISS, the first independent magazine for the German-speaking world to cover all facets of the precious metals markets.

In future, GOLD & WEISS will be published twice a year, once in spring as a conference magazine for the ZukunftsForum Edelmetalle with a print run of 7,500 copies and then in late fall as a supplement in the Handelsblatt with a print run of around 60,000 copies.

In addition to the print edition, GOLD & WEISS will also be available electronically, for example on the ZukunftsForum Edelmetalle website.

I hope you enjoy reading it.
