Central Bank Gold Sales At 297 Tons So Far This Year - WGC

203 tonnes to go until the end of Sept. As the price increases and banks have an increasing asset on their books, they are less likely to continue to sell as appreciation is greater than interest rates available through selling and putting into treasuries/bonds

Central Bank Gold Sales At 297 Tons So Far This Year - WGC

LONDON (Dow Jones)--Central banks have just until the end of September to sell 203 metric tons of gold if this year's gold agreement sales quota is to be fulfilled, according to World Gold Council figures Thursday.

European central banks have sold just 297 tons of gold, far short of the 500 ton annual limit agreed by members to the Washington Gold Agreement, according to WGC.

Switzerland has sold the most, at 99 tons as of the end of June, while Sweden has sold seven tons as to July 7.

As of the end of May, the European Central Bank had sold 72 tons of gold, France had sold 85.6 tons and the Netherlands had offloaded 19.5 tons of the metal while a country not yet known has sold 14 tons of gold, according to the figures.

Last agreement year, from Sept. 27, 2006 to Sept. 26, 2007, the Eurosystem banks plus Sweden and Switzerland sold 475 tons of gold. The five-year agreement runs out next year.
