Untangling Gold at the Bank of England | Gold and Precious Metals

Title: Untangling Gold at the Bank of England Content: From 2006 the Bank of England’s Annual Report has declared the quantity of gold in its custody, including the UK’s own 310 tonnes. Prior to that date a diminishing quantity of on-balance sheet gold (sight accounts) was recorded in the audited accounts, which then disappeared. This tells us that sight accounts (where the BoE acts as banker and not custodian) were dropped. This is sensible, because the BoE is no longer directly liable to other central banks while gold prices are rising. via Before It's News | Top 50 stories http://beforeitsnews.com/top50.html
