Three stories, one shared goal

About Us

Trust is built over time. Our experience is where it all begins.

Helior’s corporate roots date back to 2016. In 2022, building on these foundations, the current founding team established Helior and began developing the project.

Bringing together a range of skills and experience, they created a project dedicated to physical gold, with a clear goal: to make it more accessible to individuals and families through a model built on transparency, professionalism and personal relationships.

Founder Helior

Our story

Helior brings together expertise gained across a range of fields, including entrepreneurship, finance, business development and client relations. These complementary experiences have shaped a shared project, built over time on trust, professionalism and a common vision.

At the heart of the project is a clear conviction: physical gold should be more accessible and easier to understand.

This is the foundation of the Helior model, which combines Swiss physical gold, dedicated services and a network of Gold Advisors who help people understand Helior’s solutions.

A MODEL BUILT AROUND PHYSICAL GOLD

The Helior model

Helior

A simple, transparent model

Helior makes Swiss 999.9 fine physical gold more accessible through solutions designed to meet different needs.

The gold is sourced from refineries on the LBMA Good Delivery List and, where it is held in custody, is stored professionally in Lugano.

Every purchase is documented, and allocated gold is identified by the bar’s serial number, ensuring clarity and traceability throughout the process.

The founders

Three different paths. One shared vision.
Helior is led by Luigi Leonardi, Fabiano De Marco and Filippo Barbieri, who bring together complementary skills and experience to shape the project and ensure its continued development.

Strategy and development, leadership and relationships, business development and training: different areas of expertise united by a common goal — making physical gold more accessible to individuals and families.
