LONDON, 13 April 2019 – BullionVault founder and chairman Paul Tustain is profiled today in the Financial Times, the world's longest-running and most respected business newspaper.
Asked for the secret of his success, "Luck is important," says Paul. "At the start of the [mid-1980s'] computer revolution in the City I was 25, I had five years' experience in stockbroking and a computer science degree. That made me unusual."
After selling his first venture, a successful software business, at the turn of the millennium, Paul hit upon the idea of a gold-trading service quite by chance, because then-UK Chancellor Gordon Brown announced he would sell half of the UK's bullion reserves.
"If he hadn't I would never have noticed that gold had gone down in price...[and] it looked cheap."
