About Us

What is Baseline Trading?

Baseline Trading is a distinguished family-owned precious metals enterprise with over four decades of excellence in global gold trading, operating from strategic locations in Dubai, Geneva, and Abu Dhabi.

A Legacy of Trust

Baseline Trading represents the evolution of a family business that has been at the forefront of international gold trading for over 40 years. Founded on principles of integrity, transparency, and exceptional service, our company has grown from a modest trading house into one of the most respected names in the global precious metals market.

Our Heritage

What began as a small family operation in the 1980s has flourished into an international enterprise spanning three continents. Through multiple generations of leadership, Baseline Trading has maintained its founding values while embracing innovation and technological advancement. Our family's deep roots in the gold trade have provided us with unparalleled expertise and relationships that benefit our clients every day.

Strategic Global Presence

Dubai - Middle East Hub

Our Dubai operations serve as the gateway to Middle Eastern and Asian markets. Located in the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC), we leverage Dubai's strategic position as a global trading hub, its world-class infrastructure, and its business-friendly regulatory environment to facilitate seamless gold transactions.

Geneva - European Excellence

Geneva represents the heart of our European operations. Switzerland's centuries-old tradition of precious metals refinement and storage, combined with its political stability and strong banking system, makes it the ideal location for serving our European and international institutional clients.

Abu Dhabi - Capital Markets Integration

Our Abu Dhabi presence connects us with sovereign wealth funds and major institutional investors. The capital's growing importance as a financial center and its strategic initiatives in precious metals trading provide unique opportunities for large-scale transactions.
