Barclays, a well-known bank in the United Kingdom, has given the word that it will be opening a private vault where gold bars can be stored within the city of London. While the specific location of the warehouse is not known, Barclays is a big player in the gold bullion market, so it comes as no surprise that a clandestine warehouse for storing it would be an additional service they offer. Due to upheaval in recent global economies, more and more investors and institutions have decided to buy gold bars. Barclays told the media that the service was asked for by the clients it serves. According to a recent article on Prison Planet, the vault will feature other precious metals, as well, including silver, platinum, palladium and rhodium. Although it's location must remain a secret for obvious reasons, the facility is to be one of the largest in all of Europe, and was built by Brink's Limited UK somewhere inside the M25 loop.
