German Business Awards 2020

EU BUSINESS NEWS / 2020 German Business Awards 7 number of investment instruments and approaches are combined with as little correlation (i.e. interaction) as possible in order to balance the risk-return ratio. In addition to this, aspects of geographic diversification, deposit quality and, last but not least, physical assets are also taken into account. Assets must be self-sufficient, i.e., capable of being valued individually and independently of each other, and capable of being sold individually. The best way to do both is with tangible assets! Another key area of the work done by IEM is the market analysis that gives it maximum advantage. In particular, the firm uses early indicators such as the Baltic Dry Indes, or the Purchasing Managers Index. Using these, the firm is able to recommend purchases of palladium to its clients after a shortage analysis, and analysis of raw materials criticality. Finance may be in a constant state of flux, but the analysis provided by IEM helps clients make informed decisions that lead to better prospects. In March 2019, the firm recommended silver, and the price of that has now doubled. In 2018, IEM recommended buying rubies from Burma, and again, the price has doubled with the mine being exhausted. One must always know that scarcity is the approach, and savvy investment can lead to future success in finance with IEM. Working with interest is another part of the service provided by IEM, though the firm works to produce real value interest, not money interest. In other words, interest from real values that are not controlled by central banks. That is why IEM also takes care of rare technology metals that are at most critical in their supply. Currently, the firm is working on something quite extraordinary involved rare luxury watches, rare wines, rare whiskeys, and rare IEM - Internationale Expertenmanufaktur GmbH & Co. KG handbags, all of which are stored with access protection. Driven by scarcity on the markets, the success of IEM and its clients is down to patience, and the value development will come naturally. In the end, everyone is able to relax and sleep peacefully knowing that their assets are protected, and their financial future is one that can be looked forward to with hope rather than dread. Looking ahead to the future, there is plenty on the horizon for what IEM has to offer, and will soon be able to offer for its clients. There is constant work going on when it comes to coming up with new solutions for customers, and reinventing old solutions for new customers. Many projects are in the pipeline, and there will no doubt continue to be a focus on how best to help customers during what is an understandably difficult time with banks and financial institutions struggling under the effects of COVID-19. Ultimately, the future continues to be bright for IEM despite the struggles that 2020 has brought with it. However, an ongoing focus on what the firm does well can play to its own strengths, as well as those of the customers whose hard-earned finances are on the line. Being labelled the most trusted financial services consultancy is no less than the firm deserves, and this accolade will surely pave the way for bigger and better things yet to come.
