Availability depends on identity checks (KYC/KYB), eligibility, and your location. Each product has its own terms, rights, and risks.
Established business. Short cycles. Marketable assets.
ALCUM gives eligible investors access to an established copper trading business, with short trades, resellable metal, and control from purchase to sale.
An established business
We have long-standing suppliers, buyers, and an experienced team. ALCUM opens that business to eligible investors.
Short trading cycles
A typical trade takes 2 to 6 weeks from purchase to sale. Capital returns quickly and can be put back to work several times a year.
Global resale market
Copper trades on a deep global market, so if a deal falls through, the metal can be sold to other buyers to recover value.
The liquidity of the metal does not determine when you can exit; exit and settlement follow the terms of your product.
Disciplined execution
ALCUM approves every counterparty and transaction, controls how money moves, and keeps each trade within set risk limits.
Returns are not fixed or guaranteed. They depend on the results of completed trades.
The partners behind our platform
External verification, execution, and oversight across the operational lifecycle.
Inspection of warehouse stock against receipts, invoices, and bank statements.
An independent third party that verifies the validity of the documents.
For Cuprum Token, enforcement rights are held outside ALCUM for the benefit of investors.
How your capital is controlled
ALCUM is accountable for every trade. Here's how money and copper are controlled from purchase to sale.
Reliable partners
ALCUM trades only with approved suppliers, processors, and buyers, within established trading relationships.
Approved trades
Each purchase and sale requires ALCUM's approval and must remain within the set risk limits.
Controlled payments
ALCUM controls the accounts used for each trade, and funds move only against the agreed-upon documents.
Live tracking
Every movement of money and copper is recorded on the ALCUM platform, so clients can follow each trade.
Questions, answered
It depends on the product. With Cuprum, your copper's value rises and falls with the copper price. With Cuprum+, earnings come from ALCUM's use of your copper in its trading business. With Cuprum Token, returns come from the net results of buying scrap copper, refining it, and selling it, after costs and fees. A typical trade takes 2-6 weeks.
The opportunity exists because physical copper trading requires significant upfront capital, so it has largely been limited to industry insiders. ALCUM gives eligible clients access to an established copper business.
Each ALCUM product carries a different risk profile. Investors may be exposed to copper price movements, trading performance, counterparty performance, operational execution, liquidity limitations, settlement timing, and product-specific legal risks
Returns are not guaranteed, settlement may take time, and early exit may be limited depending on the product structure. The complete risk factors, fees, protections, redemption mechanics, and settlement terms are set out in the relevant product documentation.
ALCUM uses several safeguards: established partners, independent inspection of the copper, insurance, strict control over how money moves, collateral rights for Cuprum Token investors, and hedging to limit copper price risk, where the product is designed for it.
These safeguards reduce risk, but they can't remove it completely.
