29

Producer Hedging
Gold is leased by central banks and other holders to commercial/bullion banks and earns a return in line with gold lease rate. With respect to producer hedging, bullion banks contract to buy gold forward from mining companies. To fund the purchase, the bullion banks sell an equivalent amount of gold and proceeds are invested at money market rates. This brings metal to the active market and hence hedging is sometimes referred to as accelerated supply. The above ground supplies being large, the gold lease rate is lower than the money market rate encouraging bullion banks to sell gold and invest in money market instruments. The market is implicitly biased towards producer hedging and speculator selling. Hence the gold market is a contango market.
