This is the case with any IRA. The IRS requires that a custodian administer and track the assets in an IRA – a Precious Metals IRA is no different.

Why do I need a custodian to administer the precious metals in my IRA?
There is no assurance that commodities, i.e. precious metals, will achieve their objectives. Return and principal value will fluctuate and your portfolio, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. No statement, presentation, article, or any other communication available in this material is to be construed as a recommendation to purchase or sell a security or service, or to provide investment, legal, accounting or tax advice. Client should carefully read sales literature prospectuses, and/or other offering documents, when available, before making purchases. They should carefully consider all risks and/or considerations contained in the documents. Clients should understand that all purchases have some degree of risk. If seeking advice, clients are responsible for providing accurate information about their financial status, goals, and risk tolerance to ensure that appropriate recommendations are provided. Client should promptly notify their Account Executive whenever there are significant changes to their portfolio objectives, risk tolerance, income, net worth or liquidity needs. Client should make certain that they understand the correlation between risk and return. Clients should consult an attorney or tax advisor for specific tax or legal advice. Commodities involve risk and are not suitable for all investors.
