Bron Suchecki: Dutch central bank hides gold bar list to conceal leasing

Section: Daily Dispatches

10:40a ET Tuesday, August 30, 2016

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Bron Suchecki, formerly an executive at the Perth Mint and now vice president for operations at Monetary Metals LLC, speculates today that the Netherlands central bank has refused to make public a list of its gold reserve bars because changes in the list would indicate how much gold leasing the bank has been doing.

Such an explanation would fit exactly with the secret March 1999 staff report of the International Monetary Fund, which acknowledged that central banks conceal their gold leases and swaps to facilitate their surreptitious intervention in the gold and currency markets:

Suchecki's commentary is headlined "Central Bank Non-Transparency" and it's posted at his blog, Gold Chat, here:

Goldbroker's clients are not exposed to any counterparty risks. They own gold and silver in their own names (the ownership certificate cites the name of the investor and serial number of his bars) and they have storage accounts opened in their own name as well. So Goldbroker.com's storage partner knows the exact identity of each investor. Goldbroker.com doesn't store in the name of its clients; rather, Goldbroker's clients store personally. All investors have direct access to their gold and silver bars.

Goldbroker.com was launched in 2011 so that investors would avoid any counterparty risk when investing in physical gold and silver.
