  • Swiss gold exports fall on lower shipments to India and Hong Kong

    Fri June 21 2024

    Swiss gold exports in May were down from the previous month owing to reduced shipments to India and Hong Kong, customs data showed. Switzerland is the world's biggest bullion refining and transit hub while China and India are the largest consumer markets, where demand depends on the season and is often sensitive to high gold prices.

    Spot gold prices hit record highs in May and Swiss gold exports to India and Hong Kong fell sharply while deliveries to China and Turkey were down only slightly, the data showed.
