About

A custody institution for physical wealth.

SterkHoud Bewaking specialises in the secure safekeeping, documentation and management of high-value physical assets for private individuals, collectors, investors, families and family offices.

Our position

Between a private bank and a conservation facility

Financial institutions are built for paper assets. Conservation facilities are built for objects. Neither is built for a client who holds both a Pissarro and a bullion position — and needs one record, one insurance conversation and one point of contact.

SterkHoud exists in that space: institutional-grade security and governance, applied to tangible property, delivered privately.

Who we serve
Private individuals, collectors, investors, high-net-worth clients, families and family offices.
What we hold
Precious metals, fine art, jewellery, watches, collectibles, documents and other portable valuables.
How we work
Under written custody agreements, with recorded authority and dual-control access.
What we never do
Publish locations, discuss clients, or move an asset without verified instruction.

Principles

Four commitments that do not move

Discretion

Nothing about a client leaves the relationship.

Documentation

If it is not recorded, it did not happen.

Continuity

Custody must survive changes in circumstance.

Restraint

Security is quiet. So are we.
