However, we are witnessing high inflation around the world. Gold is a hedge against inflation, protects against the erosion of wealth, and acts as a store of value in such times. Even, the world’s elite turn to precious metals to protect their fortunes, as both metals never lose its value. Apart from investment, jewelry & silverware, Silver has major industrial applications including green technologies," said Navin Agarwal, MD & CEO, Motilal Oswal Asset Management Company Ltd.
