Since April 19, the SBV organised nine gold auctions, of them six successful with 48,500 taels sold, while the remainder failing to attract bidders.
The SBV, the Government Inspectorate, the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Industry and Trade have established an inspection team to inspect the compliance with policies and laws in gold trading activities of credit institutions and gold trading enterprises.
The period for inspection spans from January 1, 2020, to May 15, 2024, encompassing adherence to legal regulations concerning gold trading, including anti-money laundering, accounting and invoicing practices, tax declaration and fulfillment. Inspections may be extended to the time before or after the specified period if deemed necessary.
The SBV recommends people to be cautious when participating in gold transactions to minimise risks.
