# How often is metal in the Vault audited?

**Every month, **the physical metal in our partner vaults (like VaultMax) undergoes regular **independent third-party audits**. These auditors physically count the bars and coins to ensure the total weight in the vault perfectly matches the digital ledgers on the SoundMoney platform. You can view the most recent VaultMax statements and audit summary directly by going to 'Settings' and then to 'VaultMax Statements.'
