About
A principal trader building the infrastructure that institutional gold demands.
Baseline Holdings is a multi-jurisdictional commodities investment, trading, and export platform. We operate as a principal trader—taking title where appropriate—and concentrate on gold doré and bullion as the core product. Our operating corridor spans Paramaribo and Amsterdam, with capital and counterpart coverage in Zurich, Geneva, Abu Dhabi, and Dubai.
The central objective is precise: convert fragmented, high-leakage precious metals production into documented, compliant, and repeatable export flows that withstand the scrutiny of regulators, correspondent banks, auditors, and reputationally sensitive buyers.
Approach
Three disciplines. One integrated model.
Supply Chain Integrity
We tighten the entire chain—from legally sourced supply and documented provenance, through assay and refining pathways, to secure chain-of-custody logistics and clean settlement with credible counterparties. The model is built for compliance at every node.
Sovereign Alignment
Baseline runs a deliberate engagement programme with sovereign institutions, positioning frameworks that increase formal export capture, strengthen foreign exchange inflows, reduce illicit diversion, and support monetary credibility through improved governance of the gold value chain.
Structured Capital
We target trade finance and structured liquidity from established financial centres, deploying collateralised instruments—pre-payment facilities, inventory-backed structures—aligned to documented physical flow and institutional counterparty standards.
Operations
From source to settlement.
Our operating model covers the full export value chain, designed to produce consistent throughput suitable for institutional financing and long-term offtake relationships with major producers.
Sourcing & Provenance
Legally sourced supply with full documentation of origin, volumes, and extraction methods. Every shipment carries verifiable provenance from mine to export point.
Assay & Refining
Quality verification through established assay and refining pathways, ensuring product meets the purity and documentation standards required by internationally recognised buyers and refiners.
Logistics & Chain of Custody
Secure, auditable chain-of-custody logistics from consolidation point through export, with insurance, tracking, and documentation that satisfies both regulatory and counterparty requirements.
Settlement & Offtake
Clean settlement with credible counterparties. We pursue long-term offtake agreements with major producers to anchor scale, standardise quality, and ensure repeatable commercial flow.
Geographic Presence
Four corridors. One integrated platform.
Each jurisdiction serves a distinct function within the operating model, creating a corridor structure that connects origin, operations, capital, and market access.

Governance & Compliance
Built to withstand scrutiny.
The model is designed from inception for regulatory, banking, and reputational durability. Every process, document, and counterparty relationship is structured to meet the compliance threshold required by the most demanding institutional participants.
Documented Provenance
Full traceability from extraction point to export, with verifiable chain of ownership and regulatory clearance at each stage.
Regulatory Alignment
Compliant with applicable export licensing, anti-money laundering, and beneficial ownership requirements across all operating jurisdictions.
Banking Standards
Documentation and processes structured to satisfy correspondent banking, trade finance, and institutional due diligence requirements.
Sovereign Engagement
Direct, transparent engagement with host-country institutions to support formal sector development and national economic objectives.
Counterparty Integrity
Dealings restricted to credible, reputable counterparties with established track records in institutional precious metals markets.
Audit Readiness
Operational records, financial documentation, and compliance files maintained to a standard suitable for independent audit at any time.
