Institutional Process. Physically Backed.
From mandate to metal: a rigorous, transparent process for physically backed beneficial ownership in institutional-grade metals.
Kilo Reserve is an institutional metals firm. Our metals desk executes transactions on behalf of clients across copper, aluminum, and specialty metals, handling sourcing, pricing, logistics, and custody. Every step, from initial consultation to quarterly audit, is fully transparent. Minimum account size: $100,000, funded via wire transfer.
How We Work With You
Kilo Reserve is a fully concierge metals firm. Every trade is executed by our metals desk: experienced professionals with deep institutional commodity market relationships. Our clients have direct access to the desk for execution, pricing, and portfolio guidance.
Consult With Our Metals Desk
Begin by speaking with a member of our metals desk. We will understand your portfolio context, discuss available products including copper, aluminum, and other metals we can originate on your behalf, and recommend the appropriate storage location and structure. Once your account is established and funded, we execute your trade directly through our institutional supply relationships.
Kilo Reserve publishes current indicative prices on our website as a reference. Spreads are published on our rate sheet and vary by metal. There are no management fees, performance fees, or hidden charges beyond the published spread and storage fee. Your purchase is matched 1:1 by physical, investment-grade metal sourced through our institutional supply chain.
Every Kilo Reserve client receives the same high standard of service.
From your first consultation through to ongoing custody and reporting, our metals desk works with you directly. There are no tiered service levels, the same desk that sources specialty metals for a family office principal handles your copper position with the same care and attention. Minimum account size: $100,000, funded via wire transfer.
Our trade desk is available during market hours (8:30am–4:30pm EST, Monday–Friday). All trades are executed by our desk. Account holders have direct access to their relationship manager for time-sensitive requests.
Your Metal Is Secured in Audited, Institutional Facilities
Your metals are held at institutional depositories or via LME/COMEX warrants at exchange-approved warehouse networks under a pooled storage model. We typically work with Access World for core metals held in direct physical custody and Delaware IDS for specialty metals. Specific storage facilities and custody structures are disclosed during account opening and confirmed in trade documentation. Experienced logistics providers operate all facilities under strict security protocols. Holdings are never lent or used as collateral.
Holdings are never lent or reused as collateral. Metals are fully insured and routinely audited by third parties to ensure 1:1 backing and custody integrity. A competitive monthly storage fee is applied based on your holdings and can be conveniently billed to your credit card on file.
