How is the gold price formed?
The price is formed on the international market, with the London Bullion Market as the reference. Four forces move the rate day after day.
Interest rates
Gold pays no interest. When rates fall, gold becomes more attractive and the price usually rises.
The dollar
Gold is quoted in dollars. A weaker dollar pushes demand, and with it the price, upwards.
Central banks
They have been buying record amounts of gold as a reserve for years. That structural demand supports the rate.
Uncertainty
Inflation and geopolitical unrest drive investors towards gold as a safe haven.

How is the gold price determined?

Do I get the same price for 18 carat as for 24 carat?
No. The world rate applies to pure gold. An 18 carat piece (hallmark 750) contains 75% pure gold, so three quarters of the weight counts. During a valuation we determine the weight and content in front of you and calculate the value step by step.
