Origin of the Good Delivery List of the LBMA
London has been one of the leading places in the international precious metals trade since as early as the 17th century. The roots of the LBMA's Good Delivery List lie in the 1979 meeting of leading dealers from Zurich and London to establish guidelines for the origin and precise specification of precious metals. This was the foundation for today's quality and security standards of Good Delivery gold and silver bars, which are LBMA certified.
