Buying Gold Bars and Depositing in Gold Accounts... Gold Investment Re-emerges

International gold prices have surged by 18% in about a month, nearing $4,700 per ounce.

As gold prices rise like this, interest in investment methods is also growing.

There are various ways to invest in gold.

When buying physical gold directly, such as gold bars, there are no taxes on capital gains, but value-added tax and purchasing commissions apply.

Bank gold accounts allow you to invest with small amounts of money.

However, taxes are levied if you make a profit.

You can also use a securities account.

You can buy and sell gold like stocks on the KRX Gold Market or make indirect investments through ETFs.

There is no burden of value-added tax or capital gains tax.

As mentioned, costs and taxes vary for each of these investment methods.

Therefore, it is important to carefully weigh the pros and cons before investing.
