"The biggest interest in Basel 111 is how the fraudsters manage to deal with unallocated gold as a trading vehicle because if they are actually restricted to backing trades on a par basis with actual metal then its game over and especially if the ETF's are forced to back their holdings 1 for 1 then we've got some serious volatility coming because these guys are nowhere near a 1 to 1 ratio."

There is nothing in Basel 3 that addresses any of this. It is phys gold that will need to be backed by other assets.

Expand

so it would absorb more of the "other assets' equity to hold Gold. Further to that however wouldn't tier 1 also mean if they fully owned the Gold they could borrow more against it?
