digital gold investment sebi The SEBI advisory on digital gold has sparked concern among investors holding gold through online platforms. The regulator reminded the public that digital gold is not a SEBI-regulated product, meaning investor protection mechanisms are limited.
Financial experts advise investors to review their digital gold holdings and, if necessary, redeem them before market volatility impacts prices. For safer long-term investment, Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs) and Gold Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are considered better options due to government backing and transparency.
Industry analysts recommend that short-term investors can hold small amounts of digital gold, but long-term investors should shift to regulated instruments.
