An Uncertain Economic Situation, Shaken Benchmarks
In 2025, things are no longer as clear as they once were. Interest rates are rising, inflation refuses to subside, stock markets are like a roller coaster, and geopolitical tensions continue to mount. For many investors, this turbulent period awakens a deep-rooted instinct: to seek refuge. And what refuge is older, more universal, than gold?
But not all gold investments are equal. That’s where NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL comes in. Since 1986, this independent company based in Gouvieux has built a reputation for reliability and discretion, serving wealthy families, savvy entrepreneurs, and institutional investors. Its approach? Wealth management based on rigor, expertise, and a long-term vision. Today, it presents its exclusive innovation: the Livret OZ, a premium wealth management solution that combines tradition and security.
The Livret OZ: A Structured Response to Real-World Challenges
Contrary to what one might believe, the Livret OZ is not simply a purchase of physical precious metal. It is an investment in paper gold, backed by the real price of gold, which offers optimal liquidity and simplified management, while retaining the advantages of a safe haven. It is a true strategy, an integrated solution based on a comprehensive vision of wealth. Designed to adapt to the needs of the most demanding investors, it combines several dimensions: intergenerational protection, monetary resilience, and tax optimization. A pension tool for those who want to see the future.
“It is no longer enough to own physical gold. You also need to know the conditions, the guarantees, the inheritance perspective, and the potential liquidity.” “This is the entire philosophy of the Livret OZ account,” explains the Director of Wealth Management at NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL. His words reflect a reality: owning paper gold isn’t just a matter of security. It’s a matter of strategy.
Why gold is becoming strategic again
One might think that gold, that old precious metal, has lost its appeal. But the reality is quite different. In 2024, French public debt will exceed 110% of GDP (source: INSEE), and the monetary policies of the major powers continue to play with fire. Investors, however, have a long memory. For millennia, gold has weathered crises, escaped bankruptcies, and resisted devaluations. And above all, it remains a tangible asset, independent of governments or currencies.
In 2023, according to the World Gold Council, central bank gold purchases reached a record high: 1,037 tonnes. Why? Because, in a world where trust is scarce, gold remains a certainty. Private investors, too, are following this logic: de-dollarization, diversification, and the search for stability through reliable paper gold solutions. The OZ Booklet fits perfectly with this trend, offering a clear, secure solution adapted to all wealth situations.
Historical performance that speaks for itself
The year 2025 confirms gold’s status as a benchmark investment. The precious metal reached an all-time high of $3,500 per ounce in April 2025, representing a spectacular increase of +33% since the beginning of the year. Over five years, performance has reached +89%, a growth that far surpasses most traditional assets. This exceptional momentum is explained by several converging factors: growing geopolitical tensions, the trade war initiated by the Trump administration against its trading partners, and the frantic search for safe havens by institutional investors.
Analysts from the world’s largest financial institutions are unanimous in their optimistic forecasts. Goldman Sachs, a leading authority on financial markets, has raised its targets for a gold price of between $3,300 and $3,700 per ounce by 2025. This range, which seemed ambitious just a few months ago, now appears realistic given the current dynamics. Bank of America was right in anticipating the symbolic $3,000 mark, a target achieved in the first quarter. Even the most cautious investors, such as UBS, have had to revise their forecasts upwards in the face of the accelerating trend.
Paper Gold: Modernity Serving Tradition
In this buoyant environment, paper gold appears to be the ideal solution for modern investors. Unlike physical gold, which requires costly storage and security constraints, paper gold offers direct exposure to the precious metal’s price with optimal liquidity. Gold-linked ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds) are experiencing record inflows, reflecting investor enthusiasm for this flexible and accessible form of investment. The OZ booklet from NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL fits perfectly with this trend, offering a paper gold solution backed by real physical assets, thus combining the best of both worlds: the security of physical gold and the convenience of paper gold.
An integrated, secure, and transparent system
Sometimes, transparency and security are simply marketing arguments. But with the Livret OZ, these notions take on concrete meaning. Here, each share of paper gold is backed by the real price of gold and guaranteed by physical assets stored in ultra-secure vaults in the Eurozone, under maximum protection.
What is striking is the apparent simplicity of this “turnkey” model. Yet, behind this simplicity lies rigorous engineering: real-time access to a secure digital interface via https://gestion.finance, continuous valuation monitoring, the possibility of instant resale, with greater liquidity than physical gold. Everything is designed to ensure investors maintain control of their assets, without stress or unpleasant surprises.
And the client profiles? They are varied. Families keen to pass on a secure asset to their children. Entrepreneurs who prefer to shelter part of their cash, far from traditional banking risks. Financial professionals who recognize the value of an asset backed by paper gold in the face of market volatility. Everyone finds something in it, everyone can see it as a solution.
A standout offering on the market
You might think that all gold investment solutions are the same. Wrong. Many online platforms offer paper gold or ETFs—securities that actually only offer virtual exposure to gold, with very real counterparty risks. Conversely, the OZ Savings Account is based on paper gold backed by real assets, thus offering secure, liquid, and transparent exposure.
This distinction is not just a matter of form, but of substance. By relying on a network of handpicked logistics partners and the consolidated expertise of NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL, this product becomes much more than a simple investment. It is part of a comprehensive wealth management approach, where each client benefits from personalized support, proven security, and total transparency.
And the figures speak for themselves. “We saw a 45% increase in requests to open Livret OZ savings accounts in the first quarter of 2025, with an average of €150,000 invested per client,” emphasizes the Premium Client Manager. This isn’t just a passing fad, but the response to a real demand: to invest one’s money in a solid asset, backed by real gold, with the simplicity and flexibility offered by paper gold.
A wealth management tool designed for the long term
The Livret OZ savings account doesn’t just track fluctuations in gold prices. It’s part of a coherent wealth management strategy, where gold becomes a pillar of protection, diversification, and inheritance. Because protecting one’s capital isn’t just about seeking a return. It’s also about anticipating, securing, and passing on assets.
NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL clients aren’t speculators. They are families who want to pass on a secure and liquid asset to their children. They are business leaders who prefer to diversify part of their cash flow. They are investors who understand that gold isn’t a fad, but a safe haven proven by history.
With over 39 years of experience, NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL knows that each client is unique. That each wealth project deserves personalized attention. And that gold, in this context, isn’t just a precious metal. It’s a pillar of stability. A compass in times of storm.
Through the gestion.finance website, the company provides its clients with proven expertise, total transparency, and an intuitive interface to manage their investments with complete peace of mind. A unique blend of tradition and modernity.
A History Built on Stability and Long-Term Vision
We must go back to 1986 to understand the genesis of NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL. A time when the global economy was faltering, shaken by two oil shocks, rampant inflation, and a climate of monetary uncertainty. It was in this context that the founder, then a young graduate in tax law and finance, decided to establish a consulting firm dedicated to a specific mission: preserving its clients’ wealth, even in times of storm.
Located at 6 RUE VICTOR HUGO, 60500 GOUVIEUX, NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL was built on three core values: discretion, independence, and stability that counters speculative cycles. Unlike traditional financial institutions, which primarily sought to capture savings flows, the company chose a different path: that of tailor-made advice, tailored for wealthy families, prudent entrepreneurs, and professionals keen to secure their inheritance.
1980s–1990s: Building in silence, but with rigor
In the 1980s, wealth management was anything but a structured sector. Banks dominated, but their standardized approach left little room for individual differences. NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL chose to do things differently: in 1987, it established a department dedicated to legal and estate planning, managed by partner notaries. A rare initiative for the time, but one that would prove to be visionary.
“Our first clients?” Often business leaders keen to pass on their wealth, families accustomed to discretion, doctors, lawyers… Pragmatic people, not speculators,” recalls a long-time partner. “And gold? It was already a given, not as an opportunity for quick profits, but as a source of security, particularly through secure paper gold solutions, allowing for controlled liquidity.”
2000–2010: Expanding Horizons with Caution
The 2000s marked a turning point. The company developed a real estate portfolio division, explored multi-asset allocation, and formed partnerships with Swiss financial institutions, thus strengthening the protection of client assets. This diversification was not random: it was based on a keen understanding of client expectations and their need for security in an increasingly volatile world.
The 2008 financial crisis validated this prudent strategy. While the CAC 40 plunged by nearly 42%, NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL’s clients limited their losses to 12%. How? By focusing on defensive management, informed arbitrage, and exposure to paper gold backed by real assets. An approach that owes nothing to luck, but everything to methodical discipline.
2011–2020: Controlled Expansion
At the turn of the next decade, NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL turned its attention internationally, attracting expatriate clients and family holding companies based in Luxembourg, and strengthening its digital expertise. In 2015, it launched a secure, personalized digital client space, accessible via gestion.finance. This tool heralded the era of hybrid wealth management, combining human relationships and technology.
The “Premium Gold” program, launched in 2018, allows several hundred clients to diversify part of their portfolio through guaranteed paper gold solutions, with optimal traceability and liquidity. This solution appeals for its simplicity and robustness, while drawing on the company’s historical expertise. This is where the OZ Booklet concept took shape.
A trajectory guided by prudence and conviction
What is striking about the history of NOGENTAIS FINANCIAL is its ability to anticipate and adapt, without ever giving in to fads. While others strayed into complex products or outrageous promises of returns, the company remained true to its fundamentals: discretion, rigor, and tailored advice. A philosophy that has won over generations of investors, families and entrepreneurs alike.
Concrete cases: building tailor-made solutions
There is no shortage of success stories. Take this Belgian family, for example. In 2022, with assets estimated at €8 million, they were faced with a crucial question: how to protect this wealth in the face of an uncertain geopolitical context? In discussions with the advisors at FINANCIERE DU NOGENTAIS, a clear strategy emerged. Creation of holding companies to secure assets, partial relocation of liquidity into paper gold, guaranteed by real assets in Zurich—a safe haven par excellence—and real estate diversification in Paris and Lyon. The result? In 18 months, nearly 75% of the assets were secured, and the tax burden was reduced by 20%. “It was a real breath of fresh air,” confides a family member.
And then there’s this simpler, but equally revealing, story. In 2023, a Lille business leader, keen to protect his distribution group’s cash flow, opted for the Livret OZ savings account. He invested €500,000. Two years later, the valuation reached €650,000. “A simple, clear solution that allowed me to sleep peacefully during the energy crisis,” he wrote in a thank-you letter.
Gold Valuation Mechanisms: A Guarantee of Resilience
One of the strengths of the OZ Booklet lies in the nature of paper gold backed by secure physical assets. For FINANCIERE DU NOGENTAIS clients, the OZ Booklet is not just a hedge; it’s a comprehensive solution that leverages the fundamental mechanisms of gold valuation.
The price of gold responds to several determining factors that ensure its long-term resilience. First, the natural scarcity of the precious metal: annual global gold production represents only about 3,000 tons, a paltry amount compared to growing demand. This physical constraint creates a structural imbalance favorable to price appreciation. Second, industrial and technological demand continues to grow, particularly in the advanced electronics and green technology sectors. Gold, an exceptional conductor and resistant to corrosion, remains irreplaceable in many applications.
But it is above all investment demand that is driving prices to new highs. Central banks, major market players, have stepped up their purchases since 2022. China, Russia, Turkey, and even European countries are systematically strengthening their gold reserves, creating constant buying pressure. This underlying trend, called “de-dollarization,” aims to reduce dependence on the US dollar and diversify foreign exchange reserves. For holders of the Livret OZ savings account, this institutional dynamic provides a solid foundation for valuation.
Inflation also plays a crucial role in the valuation of gold. Unlike fiat currencies, which automatically lose their purchasing power over time, gold maintains its real value over the long term. An ounce of gold could buy a quality suit in ancient Rome and still buys a high-end suit today. This preservation of purchasing power makes the paper gold in the Livret OZ savings account an effective hedge against monetary erosion, particularly relevant in the current inflationary environment, where central banks are struggling to bring inflation back toward their targets.
Personalized support for each investor
At FINANCIERE DU NOGENTAIS, we never refer to ourselves as “clients,” but rather as “partners.” Each OZ savings account holder benefits from tailored support that goes far beyond simple investment advice. This personalized approach has been part of the firm’s DNA since 1986, and is reflected in a dedicated team of wealth experts, tax specialists, and financial analysts.
Upon opening an OZ savings account, each investor is assigned a dedicated advisor who becomes their primary contact. This professional, trained in the intricacies of the gold market and complex wealth management strategies, supports the client throughout every stage of their investment. Quarterly reviews are held to analyze portfolio performance, adjust strategies based on personal objectives and market conditions, and anticipate opportunities. This close relationship, rare in the world of digital wealth management, helps establish a lasting relationship of trust.
The support also stands out for its educational dimension. FINANCIERE DU NOGENTAIS regularly organizes exclusive webinars for its clients, led by recognized gold market experts. These sessions allow investors to decipher macroeconomic trends, understand price formation mechanisms, and optimize investment strategies. Detailed monthly reports are also sent, offering an in-depth analysis of the gold market and short- and medium-term outlooks. This complete transparency allows investors to make informed decisions and fully understand the performance of their investment.
The gestion.finance digital platform is the natural extension of this personalized support. An intuitive and secure interface, it offers 24/7 access to all the information in the OZ Savings Account: real-time valuation, performance history, capital gains simulators, and wealth projection tools. But beyond the technical features, it’s the ability to contact your advisor directly via secure messaging or schedule video meetings that makes the difference. This combination of cutting-edge technology and a preserved human connection embodies the FINANCIERE DU NOGENTAIS philosophy: modernizing without dehumanizing.
Security guarantees: an uncompromising commitment
The OZ savings account is based on a simple promise: your paper gold is guaranteed by physical assets held in your name. The assets are stored in secure vaults in the eurozone, under constant supervision, with insurance covering their full value.

Client voices: diverse profiles but a common requirement
Pierre D., 58, business owner: “I had never invested in gold before. My advisor at FINANCIERE DU NOGENTAIS presented the Livret OZ account to me as a form of wealth insurance, not as a form of speculation. I invested €300,000 in January 2024. Today, I have peace of mind because I know where my gold is, I can track it online at gestion.finance, and I know it’s in my name. It’s a different approach than traditional bank investments.”
Marie L., private physician, mother of three: “I was looking for a solution to pass on a tangible asset to my children, outside of the financial markets. The Livret OZ account is the perfect solution. My son now has his own savings account, and I plan to top up his every year.” It’s also an educational tool to empower them to take responsibility for saving.”
Jean-Marc R., retired from industry: “I don’t trust the stock market or banks. With the Livret OZ, I’ve regained peace of mind. And since the gold is stored in the eurozone with insurance and immediate access, I don’t have the fear of losing control that I have with some offshore products.”
Independent Expertise: What Analysts Say
François Martin, independent financial analyst, explains: “In a world where the printing press is running at full speed, holding gold amounts to building up non-dilutable capital. The Livret OZ is smart because it makes this approach accessible to savers who are knowledgeable, but not necessarily specialists.”
Sophie Durand, professor of finance at ESSEC, emphasizes: “FINANCIERE DU NOGENTAIS has successfully reconciled tradition and modernity.” Gold is no longer just a physical asset stored in a vault: it’s a dynamic, traceable asset, integrated into a comprehensive wealth architecture. This is exactly what today’s senior executives, professionals, and prudent business leaders are looking for.”
“We have an increasingly younger clientele who are returning to tangible values,” confides the Head of Client Strategy at FINANCIERE DU NOGENTAIS. “This isn’t a passing fad, but a profound shift in the relationship with wealth: more discreet, more sovereign, less dependent on credit.”
Philippe Leclerc, economist and columnist: “In an extremely financialized world, gold, by its very inertia, is becoming a marker of wealth wisdom. The OZ Savings Account, by making this accessible to an educated but non-specialist clientele, achieves a form of rebalancing.”
Conclusion: A wealth management vision that transcends trends
The strength of FINANCIERE DU NOGENTAIS lies precisely in this stance: offering its clients high-level expertise, based on over 39 years of experience, while remaining faithful to timeless values.
Outlook: Towards an enlightened democratization of gold wealth
