Gold markets

Unlike most other metals, gold appears in large quantities in fairly pure form in nature. This is why people became interested in this metal. The first discoveries were made in the first century ВС when gold was washed from river sand in Egypt.

Today gold is mostly extracted by mining. The most important gold- producing countries in the world are South Africa, the USA, Australia. Other areas where gold is produced are to be found in Canada, Brazil, Co­lumbia, Ghana, the Philippines and more recently in China.

The world's gold markets differ from each other not only in their framework but also in their functions. An important distinction has to be drawn between primary and secondary markets. Primary markets are those that receive the newly mined gold, which they then distribute either directly or through secondary markets.

The main primary gold markets, which are often called wholesalers, are Zurich and London. The secondary gold markets, which are retail dealers, are Frankfurt, Paris, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Panama, Singapore, Hong Kong, Kuwait and others.

Thanks to the cooperation between all these centres gold is traded by telephone 24 hours a day by bank dealers and brokers.

The World Trade Organization

The World Trade Organization (WTO), which is the successor of the General Agreement of Tariffs and Trade (GATT), was established on 1 January 1995, and is the legal and institutions basis of the multilateral trading system. It provides the principal contractual obligations determining how governments frame and implement domestic trade legislation and regulations.

The essential functions of the WTO are:

• administering and implementing the multilateral and plurilateral

• trade agreements which together make up the WTO;

• acting as a forum for multilateral trade negotiations;

• seeking to resolve trade disputes;

• overseeing national trade policies;

• cooperation with other international institutions involved in global economic policy-making.

In accordance with the "most favoured nation" (MFN) clause, mem­bers are to grant to the products of other members no less favourable treat­ment than that accorded to the products of any other country. Quotas are gen­erally outlawed, but tariffs or customs duties are legal in the WTO. The WTO extends previous GATT rules that laid down the basis on which governments could impose compensating duties. The WTO Agreement on agriculture is designed to provide increases fairness in farm trade. The WTO agreement on intellectual property will improve conditions of competition. And another agreement will do the same or trade in services. GATT provisions encourag­ing industrialized countries to assist trade of developing nations are main­tained in the WTO.
