If you have been around RV/GCR Land for even a short time, it is likely that you have heard the term Platform Trade, or Trading Platforms frequently mentioned. Yet they are never adequately explained regarding their role in the RV/GCR.

This article will get you up to speed.

Private Trading Platforms are a real thing in global finance. Most are not advertised, do not have websites and operate by word-of-mouth between connected businesses and individuals. One cannot get into a PTP by applying as participants are typically approached by private invitation.

I have had the pleasure (and luck) to meet several folks at various levels of PTPs over the years. Yet it’s like the iconic movie where “the first rule of Fight Club is you don’t talk about Fight Club.”

Yet in the world of the wealthy and connected, private hard assets like fine art, precious metals and rare antiquities are placed into PTPs where they are hypothecated and rehypothecated for substantial financial leverage, arbitrage for various purposes such as raising business capital and even funding economic development or humanitarian projects.

What Exactly are Private Trading Platforms?

PTPs are specialized investment platforms that cater to the trading of a broad spectrum of assets outside the public markets.

These platforms predominantly focus on hard assets, which include tangible assets like real estate, precious metals such as gold and silver, gemstones, fine art, and other physical goods with intrinsic value.

The primary role of PTPs is to offer a secure, regulated space for high-net-worth individuals, institutional investors, and sometimes smaller investors with access, to invest in, sell, or trade these assets.

They provide a level of privacy and exclusivity not commonly found in public markets, thus presenting opportunities for higher returns due to the unique nature of the assets and less volatility compared to mainstream markets.

PTPs leverage their extensive networks, expertise, and exclusive deals to present unique investment opportunities. They often set certain criteria for participants, like minimum investment thresholds, to ensure that all investors are financially robust and comprehend the risks involved in these types of investments.

Access to these platforms is typically limited to investors who meet specific financial qualifications, allowing them to tap into a variety of hard assets and rare or unique investment opportunities not found in traditional markets.

Additionally, PTPs play a crucial role in matching sellers with buyers, facilitating transactions, providing valuation services, and sometimes offering safe storage solutions for the physical assets traded.

The Critical Role of Hypothecation and Rehypothecation in PTPs

When discussing hypothecation and rehypothecation within PTPs, it’s important to understand these as financial processes crucial to the platforms, especially concerning hard assets and securities lending.

Hypothecation happens when an investor pledges collateral (an asset) to secure a debt while maintaining ownership of the collateral, giving the lender the right to seize the asset if the loan isn’t repaid as agreed.

This allows asset owners to gain liquidity without selling, potentially leveraging it for further investments.

Rehypothecation goes a step further by allowing the lender or a financial intermediary to use the pledged collateral (the asset) for its own purposes, like securing its borrowing or obligations.

This process can enhance liquidity and trading efficiency in hard assets by allowing these assets to fulfill multiple financial roles simultaneously.

What Trading Platforms Do

For individuals or entities with valuable physical goods, placing a hard asset into a PTP offers numerous advantages.

It provides an opportunity to leverage these assets as collateral for loans or financing, thus gaining liquidity without selling the asset.

This can be especially appealing for assets anticipated to appreciate or those with sentimental value.

PTPs grant access to unique or exclusive investment opportunities unavailable to the general public, potentially yielding higher returns. They also facilitate the secure and regulated selling or trading of hard assets, reaching a broader audience of buyers or investors than possible through traditional markets.

Moreover, many PTPs provide secure storage solutions for physical assets (such as Safe Keeping Receipts or SKRs), mitigating the risk of theft or damage while the asset is held or traded.

In summary, by placing a hard asset into a PTP, individuals or entities not only secure liquidity but also access a suite of services and opportunities designed to maximize the value and utility of their assets.

It represents a strategic opportunity to enhance potential returns and offer financial flexibility, without the need to sell the asset outright.

How Private Trading Platforms Work

Leveraging hard assets, particularly those anticipated to appreciate significantly over time, in a Private Trading Platform (PTP) is a strategy that involves using these assets as collateral to secure financing or loans. This process allows for the potential appreciation of the asset while maintaining ownership.

Let’s take an an in-depth look at how this process unfolds.
