Sightholder
A sightholder is a company on the De Beers Global Sightholder Sales's (DBGSS) list of authorized bulk purchasers of rough diamonds. De Beers Group made this list, the second largest miner of diamonds. DBGSS was previously known as DTC (Diamond Trading Company). In May 2006, DTC released a list of the 93 sightholders on its website.
In 2015, De Beers introduced the Accredited Buyers allowing companies that were not traditional Sightholders to access diamonds that were not allocated to existing Sightholders.[1][2]
