Experts Discuss Gold | Accelerated Digital Development, Long-Term Value of Gold Remains Solid

The experience China has accumulated in market development, consumer cultivation, product innovation, and responsible growth has provided valuable reference for the global gold industry's development. This conference being held in Gansu is even more significant. The World Gold Council will rely on its global network and industry resources to continue cooperating with Chinese partners, supporting pragmatic exchanges, sustainable development, and broader industry collaboration, together building a more prosperous future for the gold industry.

Against the backdrop of a complex and ever-changing global economic environment, the World Gold Council places high value on the cooperative relationships established with all partners in the China Gold industry chain, continuously strengthening international collaboration, promoting industry standard development, and enhancing market transparency to drive the gold industry towards high-quality development.

The World Gold Council is not only focused on the current market situation and its solutions, but is also looking towards the future development of the gold market. The common goal of all these efforts is to ensure that gold always maintains its trusted, accessible, and adaptable position in an increasingly digital financial system.

Gold is truly a global asset. It is no longer an asset determined solely by actions in the US or London, nor is it only influenced by the West. It is also affected by numerous individual investors, individual consumers, and central bank decisions in various Asian countries.

When we analyze the market’s future, we must also consider that gold has a dual nature; it is not only an investment asset—35% of its demand is consumption-related.

Whether it's purchasing gold jewelry or using gold in corporate technology, gold demand is increasing. Coupled with the long-term strategic gold purchases of global central banks, this provides diverse and solid support for gold’s performance.

In an environment full of uncertainty, the resilience and long-term value of gold as a global asset will become increasingly prominent. The power gathered through continuous innovation and deeper cooperation will also propel the gold industry towards a more prosperous future.
