“In conclusion, the raison d’être for the London gold market in its current form with it’s ultra- secrecy around central bank gold buying and selling transactions and gold lending transactions is precisely to prevent prying eyes knowing anything important about that really goes on in the London gold market.

That key is control of the gold price.”                                                                              https://www.bullionstar.com/blogs/ronan-manly/central-banks-operating-in-stealth-at-the-heart-of-the-london-gold-market/
