The Custodian's London custodian office is located at 8 Canada Square, London, E14 5HQ, United Kingdom. In addition to supervision and examination by the U.S. federal banking authorities, The Custodian's London custodian operations are subject to supervision by the U.K. Financial Services Authority. The Custodian is also a market-maker, clearer and approved weigher under the rules of the London Bullion Market Association, or the LBMA.

entidad pesadora
Explanation:
Es decir, una entidad autorizada por la LBMA para pesar lingotes de metales preciosos (imagino que oro y plata).
Si buscas "pesador/a" en el DRAE compruebas que es el adjetivo "el que pesa".

La clave está en "under the rules of the London Bullion Market Association". En el enlace que he copiado más abajo encontrarás una frase que a mi juicio es esclarecedora:
"Unlike a formal commodity exchange, the London Bullion Market Association is a network of gold and silver bullion professionals such as banks, dealers, refiners, assayers, weighers, transporters and vaults."
