Goldwise has adopted trading technology from Integral to support 24-hour institutional precious metals dealing, a move that reflects growing demand for continuous, professional-grade access to gold and silver markets.
Goldwise is rolling out trading infrastructure from Integral, a provider of foreign-exchange and multi-asset technology, to underpin around-the-clock precious metals dealing for institutional clients. The partnership signals a push by Goldwise to bring the kind of continuous liquidity typically associated with global FX markets to gold, silver, and related instruments.
The shift toward 24/7 institutional trading infrastructure is a notable development in a market that has historically operated through regional trading windows anchored in London and New York. As Asian demand — particularly from China and India — has grown, institutional players have increasingly sought platforms capable of executing and pricing precious metals at any hour without gaps in coverage.
Technology providers like Integral specialize in aggregating liquidity and managing pricing engines across time zones, capabilities originally built for foreign-exchange desks. Adapting that architecture for precious metals trading allows firms to offer tighter spreads, automated hedging, and faster execution to banks, funds, and large commercial buyers who need to manage positions continuously.
For the broader precious metals market, the expansion of always-on institutional infrastructure can improve price discovery and reduce the volatility that sometimes appears during off-peak hours when liquidity thins. It also lowers barriers for international institutional participants who operate outside traditional London or New York business hours.
The adoption of purpose-built trading technology by a dedicated precious metals firm also reflects the ongoing professionalization of the sector. As gold and silver attract increasing attention from institutional allocators — whether as inflation hedges, portfolio diversifiers, or simply liquid commodities — the back-end plumbing of how those metals are traded is becoming a competitive differentiator.
We’ll be watching whether other precious metals trading firms follow with similar technology upgrades as institutional demand for continuous market access grows.
