Also, NYPB&T and its affiliate companies will also join the GBI platform.

Steven Feldman, co-founder and CEO of GBI, said: "The visionary thinking that Howard Milstein and New York Private Bank & Trust are known for will be a very valuable asset to GBI as it further expands its existing platforms and enables its sophisticated precious metals business to be utilized by far more market participants."

Howard Milstein, president and CEO, New York Private Bank & Trust Chairman, said: "We believe our relationship with GBI will enable our clients to have a robust opportunity to invest in gold and other precious metals. As inflation, geopolitical and sovereign debt risks move to the forefront of investor minds, gold will become an effective hedging component in the portfolios of small and large investors alike.
