Welcome Address by Mr. G Srivatsava

Respected Dignitaries on the dais, Chief Guest of the day Dr Anup Pujari, IAS, Director General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), Department of Commerce, Government of India, Distinguished guests of honour, Shri Jignesh Shah, Vice-Chairman, MCX, Shri Rashesh Shah, Chairman, Edelweiss Group, Shri Prithviraj Kothari, President, BBA, Shri S K Jindal, Chairman, Jindal Group of Industries, Shri Boorugu Mahabaleshwar Rao, President, AP Bullion Association, Shri Jitendra Jain, Vice-President, BBA, expert speakers and panellists, members of the bullion industry from around the world, officials and representatives of government and regulatory bodies, members of the press and media, ladies and gentlemen, I welcome you all to the 9th edition of India International Gold Convention 2012 at this splendid city of Hyderabad in this most magnificent venue – HICC Novotel. Hope you had a pleasant journey and are looking forward to this moment.

Just a year ago at Kovalam, the mood at the 8th IIGC was one of extreme optimism. Within a span of 12 months, the mood has changed to that of ‘caution and fear’. What an eventful year it has been for the bullion industry? Suppliers, customers, government and society are important stakeholders of every industry. Events in India during the last 12 months, has taught me a valuable lesson. For sustained growth and development of any industry, the interests of all stakeholders have to be balanced. This delicate balance was temporarily disturbed when surging import of gold bullion during last year became a cause of concern for government. What appears to be a very logical thing today, was not even noticed 12 months ago- a typical ‘black swan effect’. Realising this, we articulated the theme for the 9th IIGC and have decided upon the core theme as, “Engaging with stakeholders of the bullion industry, with special emphasis on government as a stakeholder”. Thanks to the enormous efforts and time put in by the Technical Advisory Committee, this theme was elaborated into

various agenda items of the conference. Hope you find the theme relevant and insightful for your business.

Every year, we take your feedback and incorporate certain innovative elements. We have introduced two new initiatives for the first time – one, the Master Class session on day-1 and the second, one-to-one business meetings on day-2. Hope you would appreciate these and make full use of these opportunities.

I am happy to share with you that we have over 480 delegates gathered out here today representing over 170 companies from across the globe. We have over 70 overseas delegates amongst us. To enrich the conference, we have over 28 experts from India and abroad addressing the gathering over the next two days. We have provided ample time for networking and meetings. A separate set up has been provided for display booths and stalls. I urge you to visit them and get enriched and empowered.

I take this occasion to welcome once again each one of the distinguished guests on the dais, who have accepted our invitation and have come here to share their perspective and thoughts on developing a vibrant bullion and jewellery industry in India.

I welcome all our sponsors, partners, invitees from press and media and delegates. Have a wonderful evening and enriching two-day conference. Good luck and best wishes.

MCX, Shri Rashesh Shah, Chairman, Edelweiss Group, Shri S K Jindal, Chairman, Jindal Group, Shri Boorugu Mahabaleshwar Rao of AP Bullion Association, my colleague from BBA Shri Jitendra Jain, G Srivatsava from Foretell, friends from bullion and jewellery industry from all over the world, press and media, ladies and gentlemen, I welcome you all to the 9th India International Gold Convention 2012.

This is the 9th year of the gold conference. Over the years, the conference has grown in terms of participation and has become a key meeting place for all of us. I thank you all for sparing your time and being with us today. Hope you had a pleasant journey and are looking forward to the next two days.

Friends, as you all know, 2012 has been one of the

most challenging years for the business in recent times. Everyone in this room would agree that the business volumes have dropped steeply. Despite a fall in price of gold, in USD terms in the international markets, the Indian gold prices remain close to all time high. This is due to steep depreciation in the value of Indian rupee. Slower industrial growth, poor expectation of agricultural production due to less rains and slowing export revenues from services sector mean lower GDP growth projections and less disposable income in the hands of people. Gold purchase, I expect, would be lower this year.

On the other hand, the bullion industry understands the macro-issues facing India, including the issue of high current account deficit. We fully support the government move to raise import tariff on gold bullion from Rs. 300/10 gm till January 15th to 4% ad valorem on March 16. We however, plead with the government to check the entry of gold bullion through parallel channels. We also hear rumours of possible imposition of quota system or some such mechanism to regulate gold imports into the country. The industry strongly feels that such extreme moves would cause serious market disturbance.

There are simpler alternatives which can be tried out to reduce our dependence on imported bullion. Some of these include permissionto launch innovative financial products such as “gold deposit schemes or certificates”to bring out gold from households and “gold bonds” to satisfy the needs of investors of gold in paper form. Besides, reforms such as permission to export gold bullion through banking channels with revised guidelines, permitting banks to offer services

based on domestic derivatives markets/contracts, permitting banks to buy-back gold bullion and so on would reduce import burden. The round-table discussion scheduled after the inaugural function would detail these proposals.

Sir, the bullion and jewellery industry has benefited immensely by the reform initiatives of the government. The industry has also duly passed on all these benefits to the end-consumers. The industry caters to the needs of millions of savers across the country, for whom gold symbolises safety, security and something auspicious. It is our promise to deliver quality products consistently to all these consumers. The employment generation in the bullion and jewellery industry has gone up by four folds during the last 10 years as a result of growth in business volume, creation of new marketplaces

for derivatives, launch of various exchange traded paper-products such as gold ETFs and growth in organised retailing in jewellery. The industry helps preserve and maintain the traditional craftsmanship while adapting modern practises. We estimate that the industry has generated tax revenue of over Rs. 2000 crores in customs duty and another Rs. 2500 crores in sales tax in 2010-11. Even at lower volumes, we expect this revenue to go up by a factor of two this year. Thus, the bullion and jewellery industry is an important segment of our society that creates employment and enables savings. Any policy action therefore needs to be based on both the short term as well as long term evaluation.

Once again, I welcome you all to this conference. Hope and wish you have a wonderful time during the next two days. Good luck and best wishes.

“It is possible to get 10% of the total 18000-odd tonnes of gold lying with the households through a gold deposit scheme, if we take care of three essential things- credibility, liquidity and downside risk prevention. Banks in partnership with jewellers can deliver this.”Mr Jignesh Shah, Vice-Chairman, MCX

“India has imported over 12000 tonnes of gold at an average price of US$ 600/ounce over the last 15 years. If export of gold bullion is permitted through banking channels without the value-addition criteria, then a sizeable chunk of the above gold would be exported bringing in foreign exchange. This will reduce CAD”. Mr.Prithviraj Kothari, BBA

Address by Mr. Rashesh Shah

Dis t i ngu i shed Chief Guest Dr. A n u p P u j a r i , d i g n i t a r i e s o n t h e d a i s , f r i e n d s , i t i s i n d e e d a g r e a t h o n o u r to be here on t he 9 th Ind i a I n t e r n a t i o n a l Gold Convention.

Coincidentally, government opened up the bullion sector in 1996, the same year that Edelweiss was born. So, in a way, both are products of economic reforms of the government. High degree of uncertainty – economic, political and social- across the world makes a strong case for investment in gold.

India is at an important inflection point with its own challenges of high fiscal deficit, high current account deficit, high inflation and high interest rates. We expect that in a couple of years we would see decline in these indicators and the growth momentum would resume.

Gold is an important and growing part of the household savings of India estimated at US$500 billion annually. Much against the popular

theory in equity market that households enter equity markets at the peak, the households have systematically invested in gold and real estate markets and have gained handsomely. These investments in gold were not lead by emotions but were grounded in reality.

Stopping gold import may not serve the purpose. What may serve the purpose is to increase the ‘financialisation of bullion industry’. We had seen already this happen with the launch of product structures such as Gold ETFs. There are talks of relaunching gold bond schemes. I would go a step further and say, we need rapid ‘financialisation of commodity markets’. This would improve transparency, bring innovation, increase efficiency and channelize household savings into these sectors while at the same time create productive structure for the economy so that those savings can be diverted for productive use. Our ability to find the cross-road / overlap between the household saving requirements and government need to channelize those savings for productive purposes would throw up a lot of opportunities and challenges. Bullion markets are ready for another round of innovation.

I eagerly look forward to the interactive sessions ahead to understand the opportunities and challenges in the Indian bullion industry. Thank you.

Address by Mr. Jignesh Shah

Respected Dr. Anup Pujari, dignitaries on the dais, colleagues from bullion industry, friends from media, ladies and gentlemen, it is a pleasure to be here at the 9th India International Gold Convention.

The theme chosen for the conference, “Engaging with the government” is the step in the right direction and I compliment the organisers for that. Let me cite two or three examples of engagements with the government. Today, the government has increased the import duty level on gold bullion to restrict imports. The industry feels that the government may not be able to achieve its goals, if parallel imports are not curtailed. The industry therefore should actively work with government to achieve the goal.

With all the restrictions, the volume of Gold traded on MCX is more than the combined volumes traded in equity futures in India across all exchanges. With such market vibrancy suitably backed by strong physical market, India must become the price setter of gold in the world market. This is not possible if we don’t approach the government with quality research and pursue the case.

‘Gold saving scheme’ and ‘gold bond’ are viable schemes to not only reduce import dependence but also address the issue of current account deficit. The idea of a ‘gold saving scheme’or ‘gold bond’ scheme has been around for over five years now. To my knowledge, no serious proposal backed by research has gone from the bullion industry to the government

on this issue. If we fail t o e n g a g e w i t h t h e government now, we can do little once the decisions are taken. It will then be the fault of the industry.

Let me now share with you the proof of engaging with the government. You are proud members of MCX. We are slowly beginning to influence NyMEX. MCX gave a proposal backed by research to the Department of External Affairs (DEA) requesting permission for FII / FDI investments in exchanges. Coincidentally, I am happy to share with you all that it was during Dr. Anup Pujari’s time at the DEA this proposal was cleared. I am also happy to share with you that MCX not only had FDI / FII investments but also became the first Indian exchange to get listed on the stock exchange. I am sharing this to demonstrate the benefits of engaging with the government with quality research.

I compliment Foretell and all directors of BBA for making this conference a must-attend for the industry. No gold exchange today anywhere in the world can afford not to be present here. This conference is a true Oscar for Gold!

Keynote Address by Dr. Anup Pujari, IAS, DGFT

Dignitaries on the dais, Mr. Jitendra Jain, Vice President, BBA, Mr. Boorugu Maha-baleshwar Rao, President, AP Bullion Association, Mr. Prith-viraj Kothari, President, BBA, Mr. Rashesh Shah, Chairman, Edelweiss Group, Mr. Jignesh Shah, Vice-Chairman, MCX, Mr. S K Jindal, Chairman, Jin-dal Group and Mr. G Srivat-sava, Foretell, Mr. Philip Clewes Garner, HSBC, my esteemed colleague, Joint Director General Mr. Reddy, Mr. Rajesh Khosla, friends, ladies and gen-tlemen, it is pleasure to be here on the occasion of the 9th India International Gold Convention.

Government responds to the industry needs. I am thankful to Mr. Jignesh Shah for recounting one ex-perience where the Department of Economic Affairs was able to raise to the challenges put out by the in-dustry and something was achieved.

Certain ideas thrown up by Mr. Prithviraj Kothari and others during my interactions with them are something that we can work on. Since I told you government responds, let me make a suggestion. Anytime next week or any day of your choice dur-ing the month of September, BBA or the organisers of the conference are are welcome to see me with a specific credible proposal as to what you wish to be done to realise the huge potential of the bullion market by getting the domestic gold released to the market.

The Directorate General of Foreign Trade has taken certain measures during the last two years. We are com-mitted to widening the reach of all traders, all exporters and domestic entrepreneurs to receive gold. We have in-creased the number of people who can import gold. For the first time, we have permitted

certain entities who are neither nominated agencies nor coming in the traditional sectors to import gold directly as they are actual users. We will continue to do so. You go ahead and dream, we will help you in making your dream a reality.

What type of experiences people have depends not only on the ecosystems they live in but also on what expectations they have. It is also observed that in any endeavour the experience that you gain towards the end, dominates your thinking or the post-event au-diting of what happened. Whenever you are doing, make sure the end is good. Small innovations go a long way in bringing about changes that are signifi-cant.

I gather that this is the 9th year of this conference and it is going from strength to strength. I wish it all the very best. Please ensure that the way you communi-cate here, the same communication is also passed on to the society at large, so that we all can benefit from what is going on here. Best wishes and thank you for the invitation.

Round Table Discussion on “Financially inclusive

reforms for growth and development of the Indian

Bullion Industry”Panellists: Mr. S K Jindal, Director (Moderator), Jindal Dyechem Industries, Mr. Prithviraj Kothari,

President, BBA, Mr. Jignesh Shah, Vice Chairman, MCX, Mr. Rajesh Khosla, MD, MMTC-PAMP,

Is it possible to reduce our dependence on gold imports?The first discussion of the conference started with an acknowledgement of the current concerns of the Indian government on ballooning current account deficit and the role of gold import in it. The industry pledged its support to the government and urged for reforms to (1) reduce net gold imports and consequently the dollar outflow; and (2) ensure continuity in the domestic market by ensuring supply of quality material competitively.

Permit export of gold bullion through banking channelsMr. Prithviraj Kothari stressed on the need for permitting export of gold bullion through banking channels to bring down the current account deficit. At present, bullion traders can only import gold. If they want to re-export the same, a minimum of 1.8% value addition is mandatory. Since gold bullion is a standard product similar to a currency, it is not possible to sell it at a premium over the international prices. Hence value-addition norm should not be applied to export of gold bullion. Since 1997 reforms, as per RBI data, a total 12000 tons of gold has come into the country at an average price of US$ 600/oz. Mr. Kothari suggested that if re-exports

are permitted through banking channel without value addition criteria (or value addition criteria being replaced with ‘net foreign exchange positive’ criterion), then there would be exports at the current high price levels of US$ 1600/oz. Two-way trade in gold bullion would also make India a true price setter of gold bullion. Lastly, as entire trade would be conducted through banking channel, there is no scope for money-laundering or other illegal means of trading.

Sharing his thoughts on the same issue, Mr. Jignesh Shah said, “The system should generate transparent and fool-proof audit trail and be in electronic format that can be monitored and reviewed by the government round-the-clock. If the proper presentation is made combining these factors by the bullion associations,

commodity exchanges, then, there is possibility that industry could see the good days.”

Attractive Gold Deposit Scheme could pull out 500 tonnes of gold from householdsIndian households have hoarded over 15000 tonnes of gold. Attractive schemes with wider participation from banks and jewellers could pull out at least 500 tonnes of gold into the system, thereby reducing the burden on imports.

Deliberating on this point, Mr. Rajan Venkatesh said, “Both government and the central bank authority should create products conducive to the industry. In India, people have long affinity with physical gold. So, there is need to create enough confidence in the minds of people that they can go to bank, pay money and get the quality assurance of gold that they are buying. So, there is a need for step-by-step reform.” He said that in China “the gold savings account” has been a success. In India, banks have now enough expertise and tools to initiate such schemes.

On the same issue, Mr. Jignesh Shah, said, “Around 10% of the household gold can be brought to market in a span of three years if right product is structured. Product should have three essential elements – credibility, liquidity and downside risk prevention.

Banks presence would ensure liquidity and credibility criteria. Pay out interest periodically would address the downside erosion risk. For the success of this scheme, banks must partner with jewellers.”

Refiners demand creation of Indian bullion banksMr. Rajesh Khosla, said “Having resolved ‘dore’ issue, there is a need to evolve a well-defined ‘scrap’ import policy. Presently, it is unviable to import ‘scrap’. Given that ‘dore’ from large mines are already tied-up and ‘scrap’ availability is high due to high prices, conducive ‘scrap’ import policy is needed. Secondly, refiners should be allowed to export their products, as there are periods when there is no demand in India. Thirdly, refiners are looking forward to commodity exchanges’ nod to approve their products. As per the current norm, a refiner should be LBMA approved or exchange approved to deliver products at the commodity exchanges. It would be very unfortunate for an Indian refiner to wait for long days to get the approval of LBMA so that it could deliver its products to Indian commodity exchanges. Any refinery having LBMA approved

technology/guidelines complied in the country should be given permission to deliver goods to Indian commodity exchanges. Lastly, there is an

urgent need for creation of Indian bullion banks to address the needs of refining industry”

Reducing costs and enabling ‘fungibility’ would spur gold ETFs in India

Mr. Pradeep Nagori, said, ”The 14 Indian gold ETFs together hold only 30 tons of gold today, of this, about 15 tons have come in the last 12 months. Relative to the size of the industry or imports, AUM under gold ETFs is very low. High expense ratio is one of the impediments. Permitting leasing of gold held under custody can reduce expense ratio from the current levels of over 1% to 0.3-0.4%. Of course, a strict framework should be formulated to address liquidity and operational risks. Similarly, enabling gold ETFs to be encashed against the gold jewellery purchases would integrate ‘investment’ and ‘consumption’ cycles”.

Mr. Jignesh Shah urged the gold ETFs to look at the need for hedging their exposures to prevent sudden loss in net asset value on account of unanticipated fall in gold prices.

R&D budget for developing minesMr. Prithviraj Kothari requested the government to allocate a small R&D budget from the duty collections towards developing gold mining sector in India. In India, there are large deposits of gold in the states of Jharkhand and Chattisgarh. India can source sizeable gold domestically, which would minimize the pressure on gold imports.

Gold-credible, dependable and needs careful handlingSumming up the discussion, Mr. S K Jindal said, “Gold is a credible asset and needs to be handled cautiously. In 1990s, when the country was in financial problem, it was gold which rescued the country. Same way, any individual in this country can come out from any financial crisis if he or she has some gold in hand. Thus, gold is dependable asset and has been a saving vehicle for million. We must respect that and keep providing value to the savers as well as value-adders such as jewellery manufacturers. There is also a need to keep sharing our perspective with the government and seek their advice on growing this important asset class”.

“In the last 25 years of markets, on less than 1% of time, platinum traded at a discount to gold”.Mr. Matthew Turner, Mitsubishi Corporation

Panel Discussion-1: Working with the Govern-

ment for growth and development of the Indian

bullion industry

Panellists: Mr. Haresh Kewalramani, Director, BBA (Moderator), Mr. Venkatesh Babu, President,

Bangalore Jewellery Association, Mr. Mayank Khemka, MD, Khemka Group of Companies,

Mr. Prashant Mehta, MD, Rajesh Exports, Mr. Chanda Sreenivas Rao, Secretary, AP Bullion

Association, Mr. Harsavardhan Chowksi, Shri Chowksi Mahajan, Ahmedabad

The first panel of the morning discussed some important issues related to physical market. The main agenda was working with government for growth and development of the Indian bullion industry.

KYC norm followed by associations:Mr. Harshavardhan Choksi said, “Ahmedabad Jewellery Association was formed in 1948 with written constitution. To become a member, one has to have minimum 5 years of experience in the trade along with certain credentials”.

Mr. Chanda Sreenivas Rao said, “AP Bullion Association is a new association. Any bullion dealer can be a member of the association by paying certain

fees. Every member has to participate in periodic meetings and contribute for the development”.

Mr. Venkatesh Babu, said, ”Bangalore Jewellery Association follows a very strict KYC while admitting new membership. VAT registration is mandatory pre-requisite. The association conducts a spot visit to applicant’s business premise. There are 15 board members in the association. If any of the board members has any objection to the applicant, the application shall be rejected without stating any reason”.

Association’s role in establishing quality standards- a success storyMr. Venkatesh Babu said, ”In Bangalore, the poor quality silver was being sold in the past. The association had formed a ‘silver committee’ that worked closely with refiners, assayers, traders and bullion dealers over the last one and half years to develop the quality standard and made .999 finesse silver mandatory. The association has been providing .999 purity assurances ‘seal’ on silver bars and members who want to deal in silver have to adhere to the norms. Besides, time-

to-time the association also takes random samples from the market (every two to three months) and the samples are sent to Mumbai or Bangalore Refinery, for ascertainment of quality”.

Fix import duty on weight basis in Indian rupees Mr. Mayank Khemka said, “Frequent changes in tariff value of gold and silver have made operations as well as product pricing very challenging. Keeping the rate of duty intact, we request the government to announce the duty payable in Indian rupees on weight basis. The duty payable can be changed periodically (once a month, on a fixed date), in line with the change in gold prices. This would take care of interest of government as well as the industry. Such a system would also be compliance friendly”.

Mr. Prashant Mehta proposed another alternative. “Given the fact that all nominated agencies are corporations of high repute and follow transparent systems, government should consider the invoice value for levy of duty rather than declaring a tariff value. This would simplify the entire process” he said.

Can bullion industry deliver good delivery bars to the exchanges? Indian refineries are either new, or small in size, or do not meet the capital criteria or tonnage handled

criteria set by LBMA. Therefore, it would take a while for these refiners to become eligible for accreditation. Does it therefore call for developing an Indian good delivery standard? Or should we qualify a product if the refiners have adhered to product / quality norms specified by LBMA? Should commodity exchanges launch a new contract for Indian Good Delivery or LBMA equivalent product?

Each of these options have positive as well as negative aspects. Many of these are only interim solutions. The industry needs to aspire and get LBMA accreditation at some point in time, if it wants the products to be globally acceptable. The industry also needs credible institutions and infrastructure support such as world-class assaying and testing laboratories. Lastly, the industry needs to communicate to the stakeholders and engage them during this transition.

TCS on bullionTax collected at source (TCS) on cash purchase of jewellery is applicable for purchases over Rs. 500000. However, for bullion, TCS is applicable for cash purchases over Rs. 200000. The industry unanimously appealed to the government to align the TCS for bullion with those of jewellery stating that gold content in both cases is over 90% and hence there should not be any distinction.

Federation of association is a mustUnanimously, panellists affirmed that one national association should be formed to continuously engage with the government.

The discussion finally ended in a cautious note as Mr. Prithviraj Kothari told the audience that there was news that government was pondering to increase duty to 7.5% from current 4%. It was basically a news channel report.

Deliberation-2: Nurturing long-term sustainable

cross-border partnerships

Panellists: Mr. Sunil Kashyap, MD, APAC, Scotiabank (Moderator), Mr. Philip Clewes Garner,

Director, HSBC Bank PLC, Mr. Peter L Smith, Executive Director, JP Morgan

The very critical idea of establishing long-term trade relationship between two markets was discussed in this deliberation by experts from three leading bullion banks of the world- HSBC, represented by Mr. Philip Clewes Garner from London; JP Morgan, represented by Mr. Peter L Smith from London and Scotiabank, represented by Mr. Sunil Kashyap from Hong Kong.

Export of bullion is a good ideaMr. Philip Clewes Garner said, “Perhaps government of India is trying to disturb a section of the business by imposing too many rigid regulations. India is the most important market in the world and London is directly related with this market for last 15 years. The situation is heading towards uncertainty where it would be very difficult for us to participate. We came

to know little while ago that perhaps government will increase the import tax once again. From outside we can’t do anything. Situation may turn such that we may have to wait till normalcy returns to market. Gold’s value in rupee terms has increased by eight to nine times since 2000 and it is mainly depreciation of rupee and of course gold’s own value in dollar terms. Much discussion took place certainly on exportation of gold from India this morning. This kind of measure is certainly a necessity to contain, to run the market. Market should be highly tradable. In 2010-11, Turkey exported 400 tons of gold, for example. So, it is about making Indian market tradable all the time. The initiative has to be taken at some point of time.”

Indian Good Delivery may not work Mr. Peter L Smith said, ”The appetite of Indian

IIGC_2012 Souvenir Text.indd 32 10/17/2012 2:47:47 PM

Page 33: Bullion BulletinGroup, Shri S K Jindal, Chairman, Jindal Group, Shri Boorugu Mahabaleshwar Rao of AP Bullion Association, my colleague from BBA Shri Jitendra Jain, G Srivatsava from

33www.goldconvention.in

consumer for gold and silver will continue to remain strong. When local currency being devalued, gold is certainly an attractive asset. Regarding creation of Indian good delivery standards, frankly, look at the reality, RBI would only buy London Good Delivery large bars. Then, why to look for another standard? If you have refiners in the country which could follow London Good Delivery Standards, just replicate it. Standard is already set and being followed by the rest of the world. Market has already priced the London good delivery bars coming to India against non good delivery bars which are available at a lesser price. So it is very simple, market driven reality. So, Indian bullion associations need to come together and decide the right way to move forward towards that standard.”

Bullion banks in India are efficient and have contributed to the growthMr. Smith added, “Banks such as ScotiaMocatta has been supporting the Indian bullion market to a great way for several decades. The bank is sourcing the material on consignment basis at their own risk of liquidity and supplying gold in different parts of the country. So, banks have been the major player towards the growth of this market and it is unfair

to suggest that banks have been making “unfair margins” in the bargain.

Open the export route and make rupee freely convertibleMr. Garner said, “Given the small size of gold holding at the individual level, “Gold Deposit Scheme” may not succeed in India. A better option would be to make rupee freely convertible. Traders should be allowed to fix the price of gold in Rupee terms. It would not bring any detrimental effect to banking industry in the country. No government in this world has created any product which is accepted or successful thoroughly. ETF can be useful option, but that entails someone to buy every ounce of gold that a unit of ETF generates at the end of the day. So concern remains the same – the detrimental effect on Balance of Payments. So, best way to solve this problem at present is to open the export route and to make rupee freely convertible.”

RBI should lead financialisation of goldMr. Smith supporting Mr. Garner’s view said, “Indian government should device a two-tier system, where population will be allowed to allocate certain portion of their personal asset into physical gold and if they

IIGC_2012 Souvenir Text.indd 33 10/17/2012 2:47:51 PM

Page 34: Bullion BulletinGroup, Shri S K Jindal, Chairman, Jindal Group, Shri Boorugu Mahabaleshwar Rao of AP Bullion Association, my colleague from BBA Shri Jitendra Jain, G Srivatsava from

Proceedings of 9th India International Gold Convention 2012 24 - 25 - 26 Aug 2012

34 www.goldconvention.in

want to buy gold beyond that level, then they should be allowed to invest in gold funds. RBI must take the responsibility of creating such financial products, like RBI ETFs, which can be used as borrowing tool later. RBI has to balance the market through this physical market as well as financial products in gold. Otherwise, it is very difficult to resolve the current crisis.”

Pension funds and insurance funds should be permitted to diversify into goldMr. Smith said, “I am not sure if the regulations in India permit insurance sector to invest in gold. If it is not, then there is certainly serious concern for portfolio diversification especially when equity and bonds are extremely volatile in recent years around the globe. If regulator permits insurance funds to invest in gold, then certainly there is a great possibility to

bring global funds into financial system”.

Mr. Garner fully supported this view and further added that not only insurance funds but also pension funds should be permitted. Slowly around the world, pension funds are diversifying their asset from equities, bonds to precious metals or more precisely in commodities.

Deliberation-3: Indian Bullion Refining

What does the future hold for India? What can we

learn from International experience?

Panellists: Mr. Rajesh Khosla, MD, MMTC - PAMP (Moderator), Mr. V K Agarawal, Director,

Shirpur Gold Refinery Ltd, Mr. Michael Mesaric, CEO, Valcambi SA

‘Dore’ issues resolved. Resolve issues with ’scrap’ Till recently, importing ‘dore’ (a mixture of gold, silver and other metals with a minimum gold content of over 80%) into India met with regulatory hurdles such as ambiguity in definition, customs duty applicable and the drawback procedures. These have been satisfactorily resolved by the government.

Mr. Khosla started the session with a discussion on sourcing ‘scrap’ (usually refers to gold or silver jewellery but may include any article with substantial gold or silver content in it) from overseas as refiners around the world refine both ‘dore’ and ‘scrap’.

When asked about the mode of operation at Valcambi SA, Mr. Michael Mesaric said “Valcambi usually operates in two sections – ‘dore’, the primary input and ‘scrap’. The usage depends upon market conditions. Sometimes scraps are easily available in the market and sometimes not. But basic problem nowadays with ‘scrap’ is its origin. It is very difficult to locate the source of the scrap. Europe is very much concerned with ‘conflict’ gold. With this in place, Valcambi is now happy to work more with primary products, that is, ‘dore’.”

Mr. Khosla said that at this point it is very difficult for an Indian refiner to source ‘dore’ abundantly as miners overseas might have long - term contracts with existing refiners. So, Indian refiners may have to depend on ‘scrap’ and time has come to look aggressively at sourcing ‘scrap’ from international market. Sourcing ‘scrap’ is currently unviable for Indian refiners because of high duty structure. Therefore, issues pertaining to importing ‘scrap’ need to be resolved.

Swiss model of winning miner’s trustOn the uniqueness of Switzerland-based refineries, Mr. Mesaric said, “Top ten miners in the world do not want their material to be processed in refineries

IIGC_2012 Souvenir Text.indd 35 10/17/2012 2:47:58 PM

Page 36: Bullion BulletinGroup, Shri S K Jindal, Chairman, Jindal Group, Shri Boorugu Mahabaleshwar Rao of AP Bullion Association, my colleague from BBA Shri Jitendra Jain, G Srivatsava from

Proceedings of 9th India International Gold Convention 2012 24 - 25 - 26 Aug 2012

36 www.goldconvention.in

which are lesser known or do not have established accreditation. They also want government of the country to certify refiners’ products. At Valcambi, we pay our staff, but government supervises our operations. So there is dual reporting system which satisfies the miners. So, this structure may not support new industry like India readily.

On third party accreditationMr. Khosla suggested that India should approach Swiss government to emulate Swiss Federal Assaying Certification so that some degree of government intervention takes place. Mr. Mesaric endorsed this concept stating “it would be great...it will give security to the people”.

Swiss Federal Assaying Certification System recruits, trains and after successful training, certifies candidates. The certified people are different from ordinary assayers having basic understanding of assaying. These certified assayers guarantee the purity of products. If this system is implemented in India, then refiners can deliver quality products. It would deliver good comfort to bankers, financial institutions and even commodity exchanges.

Mr. V K Agarawal mentioned that NABL India is a credible third party assaying laboratory who has been recognised even internationally. So, products

certified by that particular lab equally guarantees same quality.

Indian banks need to engage with refiners Refining is highly capital intensive and by global standards, bullion banks have very defined agreements from purchasing to safe keeping etc with the refiners. So, refiners do not have to literally sell their products. At present, Indian refiners do not have such facilities. Mr. Mesaric said, “Without financing by banks, it is not possible to keep large stocks by a large refiner. Financing is needed even to source ‘dore’ from different destinations”. Mr. Khosla requested all 24 nominated banks in India who import gold to engage with refiners and address their needs across the supply chain ---- from sourcing raw material to finished products.

Is technical compliance with ‘LBMA good delivery’ good enough? Most Indian refineries would take a while before qualifying to apply for the LBMA accreditation as they are yet to meet the capacity, capital or tenure of continuous operations criteria specified by LBMA. However, many would qualify the technical parameters specified under the LBMA Good Delivery. So, is there a case for qualified acceptance of the bars from such refineries that at the exchange platform?

IIGC_2012 Souvenir Text.indd 36 10/17/2012 2:48:02 PM

Page 37: Bullion BulletinGroup, Shri S K Jindal, Chairman, Jindal Group, Shri Boorugu Mahabaleshwar Rao of AP Bullion Association, my colleague from BBA Shri Jitendra Jain, G Srivatsava from

37www.goldconvention.in

Mr. Mesaric cautioned that India should not make the same mistakes which other countries have made. India should not look forward to making its own Good Delivery Standard, rather, they would be called as, say, LBMA Standard exercised by Indian refiners. “The argument might be technically correct, but credibility would be an issue that refiners should take care of” said Mr. Mesaric.

Challenges in moving metal over long distancesMr. Khosla raised the next issue of security while transporting the precious materials. Most of the refiners are far away from nearest International Airport. So, it takes time and raises security concern. Mr. Agarawal said that they are having

their own airstrip and also they are using private well-known security agencies. Mr. Mesaric said that though Valcambi as well as some other refineries are located 250 km away from Zurich Airport, it is not a major concern other than making the process a few cents costlier.

Insurance- costly and unaffordable in IndiaMr. Khosla finally mentioned that it is difficult to obtain cost effective insurance for a refiner in India. Mr. Mesaric said that this problem is prevalent in Europe as well, though it is less rigid. He mentioned that Valcambi had to struggle hard for first $300 million, but had no problem to get next $800 million insurance cover.

Delberation-4: Innovative Products in

Market PlacePanellists: Mr. Sameer Patil, VP-PKMT, MCX (Moderator), Mr. Anindya Boral, Director - Metals,

CME Group, Mr. Samir Shah, CBO, DGCX, Mr. William Berkshire, MD, HKMEx

Commodity exchanges are important part of bullion market infrastructure. This panel discussed innovative products that would help industry minimize or eliminate pricing and counter-party risks, besides ensuring liquidity.

MCX- innovations for hedgers as well as investorsMr. Sameer Patil briefed about precious metals based futures contracts available on MCX starting with gold (Gold Standard (1 kg 995 bar), Gold mini (100 gm 995 bar), Gold guinea (8gm coin) & gold petal (1 gm), silver (silver standard (30 kg 9999), Silver mini (5 kg 9999) and Silver Micro (1 kg) and platinum. Mr. Patil said “In normal times, usually 5-6 kg to 12 kg delivery took place in gold guinea contracts. But, during festival times like Akshaya Tritya, Diwali etc., delivery goes up nearly three times the usual quantity. So, it shows even retail customers are taking active parts in exchange initiated products in this country. It is good to see that exchange initiated contracts are

not only used merely as ‘hedge instrument’, but as a means of investment vehicle by the retail segment.’’

CME- one global solution in a single boxMr. Anindya Boral said, “Much has changed in exchange trading during the last 20 years. The idea of Globex was first thought of in 1980s as the issue was to operate market after closing of trading sessions. It was basically guided by currency trade. London was the epicentre for currency trade and much was happening there when Chicago traders were asleep. First, technology was the issue as trades have to be performed electronically. Finally, it started in 1992. The first overnight trade sessions generated 2000 trades. In initial years, currency contracts were the main drivers of volumes. But from late 1990s the volume started picking up. First was the launch of E-mini S&P500 futures contracts. There was large demand witnessed in this contract. More asset class included with enhancement of

technology. At present, CME can process 9 billion quotes in any given month. The next important milestone was when CME expanded its base from US to international destinations, starting with London, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Europe, and most recently Mexico. So, CME is now one global solution in a single box. We have partnered with exchanges such as BM&FBOVESPA (Brazil), Dubai Mercantile Exchange, Bursa Malaysia Exchange. These exchanges are using our Globex platform. We have also redesigned our platform which enables sub-milli second order matching.”

DGCX- engage stakeholders in innovationsMR Samir Shah said, “DGCX is a young exchange domiciled in Dubai. But it is one of the fastest growing exchanges in the Middle East. Regarding product innovation, we like to spend lot of time with our stakeholder, our constituents to make the product more attractive. We have a very active forum called DGAG (Dubai Gold Advisory Group) where members meet regularly to look after the requirements of stake holders. We also work closely with Goldsouk, the jewellery and physical gold community in Dubai. We opened recently an academy where members teach the gold community how to use exchange initiated contracts as powerful means of hedging. On contract designing issue, we have changed the design a bit last year. Now, traders can take the physical delivery

easily and at the same time, contracts can be used as useful investment products where contracts can be settled financially. The response is good and in fact we have seen more than 50% of volume coming from retail investors and physical players. Today’s financial market has really become global. So we have added extra hours to trading and now we are seeing global trader’s participation as well. Lastly, for product innovation, it is awareness that requires maximum focus. We recently tied up with a Dubai based website called www.mydubaimycity.com where we are constantly exploring the usefulness of gold contracts for retail investments.”

HKMEX- the vital link that connects mainland China to the rest of the worldMr. William Barkshire said, “I am representing China, world’s largest consumer of gold. Hong Kong Mercantile Exchange has gold and silver contracts denominated in US dollar and can be settled physically in Hong Kong. We have unique membership base which is almost unmatched by global exchanges where six large brokers from mainland China do participate. Our banker includes ICBC, the largest bank in the world in respect of market capitalization

and also responsible for importing 30 to 40 percent of gold into China. In essence we are trying to bring Chinese liquidity into international market. Secondly, we are trying to build an exchange to build

a relationship with mainland Asia and rest of the world. Our trading hours start from 8:00 hours Hong Kong time extend till 23:00 hours which cover all the liquidity points in global market. Our contract size of gold is 32 ounces which satisfies Asian standard, thus by far different from COMEX contract of 100oz. Our products are priced in US dollar, but features are more close to MCX products than COMEX. We have now 10000 contracts traded in a day and we

are in the process of initiating new products so that we can increase liquidity to the levels at COMEX during market hours in Asia. Lastly, we are going to launch first Renminbi contracts in gold and silver which will have the offshore facilities to settle in US dollar. This will open up new trading opportunities to international communities as well as will enable Mainland to meet global players.”

Price Outlook

Mr. Jeffrey Rhodes, Global Head of Precious Metals & CEO, INTL Commodities (Moderator),

Mr. Matthew Turner, Precious Metals Strategist, Mitsubishi Corporation, Mr. Jeremy East, Global

Head of Metals, Standard Chartered Bank, Mr. Rohit Sawant, Sr Commodity Analyst, CPM Group,

Mr. Philip Klapwijk, Global Head of Metals Analytics, Thomson Reuters GFMS

Price outlook always remains most interesting session in every Gold Convention. This year too it was fantastic as panellists discussed multiple topics related to precious metals to forecast the price for the rest of the year and of course for 2013. The session started with a poll on where the audience expected the prices of gold, silver, platinum and Indian rupee would be as on Dec 31, 2012. Mr. Jeffrey Rhodes, the moderator of the panel, struck a fine tune between the panellists and the audience during this session. At the very beginning, Mr. Rhodes summarised the LBMA analysts forecast for 2012 and also the forecasts of the panellists (including him) at the beginning of the year. It was good to see many of the panellists were almost right in certain commodity till date. Mr. Rhodes applauded the efforts of the panellists in forecasting prices accurately. So it set a perfect platform to start the discussion.

Where is gold headed and why?Mr. Jeremy East:- “Well, for last few weeks prices were doing nothing and remained in a range. So I think platform is set to move forward. Lot depends upon quantitative easing from Fed. Of course it may come or may not come, but I am expecting somewhere around September Fed will decide its monetary policy on this issue. In South Africa, miners especially in platinum are facing labour problems. Higher cost of production and unrest with Union will make miners’ job really challenging in South Africa. In Europe, it would be important to notice how Germans will allow Greece government to delay their budgetary reforms. In the next few months, Greece will again face monetary problem and this will spill to Spain and other European nations. On demand side, ETFs are very strong in the market. Money is coming at the current high level. I am also expecting after European holidays that investors will return with vengeance. So, combining these, probably we would see gold prices to move towards $1750/oz by the end of this year. Subsequently, other precious metals will follow gold”.

Mr. Rohit Sawant:- “We anticipate relatively strong investment demand for gold. We will see basically sideways bias for the rest of the year with possibility to rise sometimes in coming years. But we expect investors might not chase gold as they had done in

the last few years. Investors were worried of collapse of economy and collapse of currency market. But none of it actually happened. What we can expect over the next few years is slower economic growth. So, investors might not chase the market hereon. On the other side, Central Bank in US could certainly take another monetary easing policy (QE3) to support its economy. Its impact on precious metals

would certainly remain positive, but do not expect any astronomical rise from the event. In short, we are expecting average gold prices would remain around $1645/oz by the end of this year, slightly higher than what we had projected at the beginning of the year.On PGMs, we have positive views on long term prospects. Basically, on supply concern we are bullish on that. On platinum, fabrication demand is a concern because of weakening demand from Europe. Investment demand has also softened in recent time on both palladium and platinum. But from longer term perspective, we do believe prices would move higher.”

Mr. Matthew Turner:-“I was pretty bullish at the beginning of the year and I am so. Central banks will continue to print money and inflation is expected to rise. If central banks stop printing money and inflation starts decreasing, then the scenario may be different. This year’s dollar strength is little surprising. I

think gold prices would continue to move towards $1800/0z by the end of this year and for silver may be around $36/0z. Dollar will start weakening once again. Silver has lost to gold in recent time because of weakening industrial demand. On PGMs, I think platinum will come around $1400/oz towards the end of the year unless ECB does some fantastic money printing, create some jobs. We may see then some short term rally.”

Mr. Philip Klapwijk:-“Gold has broken decisively 200 day moving average of $1640/oz and thus all set to move $1700/oz in the short term. This rally might be generated on assumption that Fed will do something in September on monetary policy. This has also confirmed that big downside risk is mitigated and now the money which was waiting in the sideline for confirmation of big move on a higher side probably would come now. We would see bearishness in dollar. By the end of this year, we may probably find gold between $1800-1850/oz. On silver, I agree with Mr. Matthew completely on weakening of industrial demand because of economic slowdown. Another factor that might be playing against silver is ‘the 2011 experience’ when investors chased silver and in the bargain lost substantial amount of money. So, by year end, silver might remain around $36/oz.

On PGMs, poor European demand will continue to pressurise prices. I don’t think European car market where platinum is consumed most will revive this year. Poor Chinese offtake especially from retail segment is also a concern. Platinum demand has not increased in China despite the lower price. Combining these, we may see surplus in platinum by the end of this year and consequently it would lose to gold.”

The panellists quickly discussed geo-political factors that may influence the gold prices in coming days. Focal points were the US election and the Middle-East crisis. Unanimously, panellists felt that Mr. Barack Obama will be re-elected. On the other side, Mr. Rhodes confirmed that situation in Syria is not well. Iran and Israel are not far away. So, situation can aggravate anytime considering the current political relationship with the US.

Gold and platinum spreadMr. Rhodes raised this interesting issue with the panellists. Mr. Rohit Sawant was first to respond. He said, “currently, platinum is at a discount to gold because of slower global economic growth. The platinum market is primarily driven by industrial demand. At the same time, investment demand is also less. But, ongoing labour unrest and high electricity cost in South Africa, combined, would push the cash cost. I am also expecting slightly better global economy which would bring fabrication demand back. So, next year we would see platinum at a premium to gold.”

Mr. Jeremy East said, “Historically, last 30 years, we have observed whenever platinum prices came at par with gold, investors tend to buy platinum. It is really a surprise that didn’t happen this time. But, I think going forward, investors would return to platinum at

some point of time and by this time next year, we may see platinum trading at a slight premium over gold.”

Mr. Klapwijk said, “I believe platinum will be at a discount to gold roughly about $200 by the same time next year unless some dramatic events take place on the supply side.”

Dollar/Euro ParityPanellists were undecided basically at the exact value of the currency pair next year. It was broadly viewed the parity might be around 1.10-1.30 US$ to a Euro in 2013. Sovereign debt crisis actually pushed euro against dollar this year, but in the bargain people forgot about US economic problem. So, US economic issues will again come to the stage at some point of time they argued.

If South African platinum mines problems spill over to gold, what would happen to price of gold? (South Africa produces 190 tons of gold in a year)

Mr. Klapwijk and Mr. Rhodes were of the opinion that 10 to 20% fall in production of gold in South Africa will not have bigger impact on supply considering the prices where gold is currently in. But, in case of platinum, it is really an issue.

“Dignitaries sitting in the hall, it’s my pleasure to be here at the 9th India International Gold Convention, 2012”. As you know gold prices are closely linked with overall g lobal economic c l ima te .NGloba l economic crisis has affected the growth

prospects in India and China, who together consume 45% of world gold supplies. US dollar volatility has also affected the bullion trade. As you know, government of India has increased import duty on gold to 4% on account of high current account deficit (CAD). Consequently, gold import has dropped by 40% in the first half of this year as per the available statistics. Ongoing sovereign crisis in European region further forced investors of the region to increase their investment by 15% in gold on account of preserving wealth by retail investors. Importance of gold is further evident as central banks that are long term investors continue to increase gold in their portfolio.

Gold and silver have given consistent return during the last decade than many asset classes. In fact, gold has given 10% annual return last decade while silver has given more than double since 2000. In India

Role of Public Sector Undertakings in Indian

Bullion Industry

when import of gold was liberated it was initially channelized through public sectors and later it was given to banks, large export houses and at last star export houses in private sector. Today 45 entities are allowed to import. PSUs like STC and MMTC have large network and infrastructure around the globe with capability to undertake large orders for customers. PSUs ensure transparency in operation and regulatory compliance. In regard to retail products like coins, customers have huge confidence on those products marketed by PSUs. During 2008, despite massive economic turmoil, PSUs were insulated and it is this reason that global suppliers did not hesitate to supply bullion. In short, PSUs are notable and trustworthy entities to foreign suppliers and also to Indian consumers. PSUs have developed a sound relationship with suppliers and buyers with the evolving bullion trade over the time and thus provide financial security. It’s a win-win situation to everybody.

Presently PSUs have structured so many mechanisms like consumer sales, loan sales, etc which can be utilized depending upon market dynamics. As you all know STC is the nominated agency for importing gold and silver. STC is also involved in many commodities, but in value terms, gold and silver occupies 70% of the company’s business. Economic turmoil in Europe and other developed nations will remain, but bullion trade is robust and will continue to remain so. My best wishes to Convention. THANK YOU”

TBZ success story on professionalizing

family business

Mr. Shrikant Zaveri, Chairman & MD, TBZ

Good Afternoon to all of you! I thank the board member and organizing committee of International Gold Convention 2012 for inviting me and giving an opportunity to share my views on the subject.

I am going to share with you an interesting story of how Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri successfully professionalized its business and now aiming for ambitious growth plan in India.

TBZ was founded in 1864, at Zaveri Bazar, Mumbai by my great grandfather late Shri Bhimji Zaveri. At that time it was just 8 x 8 size tin shed from where the business started. That time there were many challenges. However the focus of Late Shri Bhimji Zaveri was on customer requirements and providing service that would satisfy them.

As the time went by, the popularity started growing and so is the business. With the growth of the business, the “owner-manager” were exploring and implementing better and better business management techniques in order to run the business profitably and without any shrinkage.

It was my father who realized the importance of running and managing the business through professional management. It was very tough to

imagine at that time, as how will it happen. There were many questions as to “Who would manage it for us? Whom can we trust with so much of inventory?

Will there be the same commitment from professionals toward the business that we have?

Will we lose the control on the business? What if it doesn’t work?.” So on and so forth.

However my father was very clear with the benefits of professionalization. He wanted to go ahead with it due to following reasons:

To introduce planned and system driven 1. approach in the businessTo avoid conflict between Family and Business 2. values and goalsTo introduce strategic managerial style3. Most importantly save quality time for the better 4. use by withdrawing from day-to-day operations

This would mean de-emotionlising from the business. However, with the full conviction we appointed well qualified and experienced, non-family member professional as a General Manager to run the business.

How we managed the transition?After in-depth discussion with newly recruited • General Manager, we made him realize our family’s vision, ambition and values. We aligned our objectives.We empowered him to take day-to-day • operations related decisions. Recruiting, training and developing the talent / human assets. We stayed away from the temptation of forcing our views. However, as and when required, we used to discuss and give our inputs.We institutionalized the key operating tasks • such as procurement of inventory, designing and manufacturing, marketing, accounts and finance, HR & Admin, logistics etc. with the help of General Manager.As the business started enjoying further • growth, we initiated developing middle level management. The professional GM selected carefully the middle management team which had a cultural fitment and desire to deliver the best.As the team was shaping up, new ideas of • business management started floating around. Professional team started meeting on regular basis to discuss the business strategy, evaluate business health, identify growth opportunity, risk mitigation, improving efficiency, managing

cashflow, etc. We as a family used to give our inputs and direction as and when required. The smooth transition had already happened. • With the empowerment the General Manager and his growing team were highly motivated and delivering more than what was expected. Over the period, an organsiation structure got • developed and people at varied hierarchy were working with high potential and sincerity. They were stretching to best of their limits to run our ‘Family Business’. And we as a family utilised our best time in • giving policy decisions, direction and exploring growth opportunity at senior level.Today Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri is a listed • company on BSE/NSE. The same GM, Mr. Ravindra Nagarkar, has become the Chief Executive Officer. Middle Management has sharpened their skills • and geared up to achieve fast paced ambitious growth in the ever challenging business environment. Business is running smoothly, without involvement of any of my family members in day-to-day operations.Yes as an owner we have to constantly monitor • and control the wider aspects but without interfering the professional decisions.

However, net take out for all of you here is the transition from family run to professionally managed business has definitely paid off to TBZ. And we attribute our success to the same.Thank you.

Summary of the conference – S K Jindal

The 9th India International Gold Convention was truly remarkable for its content, context, innovation and part ic ipat ion. Dr Anup P u j a r i , I A S , D i r e c t o r General of Foreign Trade, not only inspired us through his insights on how to communicate and engage with the government but

also extended an open invitation to resolve some of the present challenges. There cannot be a better opportunity than now to engage with the government!

Roundtable discussion succinctly brought out several doable proposals to reduce import dependency and Current Account Deficit such as permission to export gold bullion through banks, permission to allow banks to offer more services including but not limited to launching of gold deposit scheme and gold bond scheme along with other stakeholders, permission to buy-back of bullion for onward sale, supporting financial needs of domestic refiners and participation in domestic commodity exchanges. Gold is a credible asset, owned and trusted by millions of Indian savers. Policy on such a vital subject should avoid short-term benefits and focus on tangible long-term advantages only.

The award ceremony recognised contribution of several industry stalwarts in a fitting manner. The entertainment thereafter provided perfect back-drop for networking.

Day-2 of the conference started with a presentation on indirect tax. It is important that representation be made to the empowered committee on GST requesting them to maintain VAT at current level of 1% in the post-GST era. The pledge by association to work together as well as share information on defaulters and disputes is a step

in the right direction. The deliberation by international bankers gave fresh ideas for dealing with gold demand in the country besides stressing on the need for making rupee convertible and permission to export gold bullion. Session on “Innovation in physical and paper markets”, bounced several ideas and working models at the audience. The deliberation on refineries stressed the importance of ‘refining’ in connecting the bullion end to the mining world and reiterated the need for strong bullion bank. The exchange panel highlighted the developments in the exchange marketplace in products and services.

Session on ‘professionalising family-business’ engaged the audience through an outstanding presentation followed by experience sharing.

Platinum is at a discount to gold. During the last 25 years, platinum traded at discount to gold on only 1% of time. The panel discussed the current market situation in platinum and the ways to promoting platinum jewellery in India. The price outlook session deliberated key events in the next 5 to 6 months and their likely impact on bullion market. The panel felt that US$ 1510 per ounce level would hold for gold and the market could see a small upside going forward for the rest of the year. The ghazal performance and gala dinner provided the perfect backdrop for winding-up after an extraordinarily eventful day.

Master Class and One-to-one Business Meetings were two new elements added for the first time in the conference. The Master Class session on Day-1 had three presentations on two topics- need for hedging using forwards / futures and options and trends in mining costs. One-to-one business meeting saw over 75 serious interactions hosted by 11 companies. The booth display section with over 20 exhibitors had a variety of services on display attracting delegates all through the day.

“‘Financialisation of bullion markets’ would not only enable directing household savings in a transparent manner but also achieve the goal of channelizing capital for productive purposes within the economy.” Mr.Rashesh Shah, Chairman, Edelweiss Group

“We suggest that the bullion industry should make a representation before the empowered committee on GST requesting them to maintain the VAT rate at 1% for gold bullion in the post-GST regime”.Mr.Nishant Shah, ELP

“Making rupee freely tradable and export of bullion from India are two useful ideas that can resolve the current challenges in bullion industry”.Mr. Philip Clewes Garner, HSBC

“Gold has moved above 200-day moving average. We expect the year to close at US$ 1800- 1850 an ounce for gold. Platinum would be at a 200 $ discount to gold same time next year.”Mr.Philip Klapwijk, GFMS Thomson Reuters

Hedging Bullion Price Exposureusing Options

Anindya A. BoralDirector – Metals Products, CME

Options Introduction – Basics and Options Vo-cabulary

Our options markets are based on option contracts on futures. The subsequent discussions will be focusedon the options on futures (and not the underlying cash asset)

Definition – An option on a futures contract is the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a particu-lar futures contract at a specific price (the “Strike) and on or before a certain expiration date (the “Expi-ration” or “Maturity”).

Classification by right:

Call options and Put options.

Right to buy underlying futures Right to sell underlying futures

Classification by Exercise:

European options and American options.

Exercise only on expiration date Can exercise anytime up to expiration date

Purchasing a Call/Put option akin to purchasing insurance… and

you need to pay a premium for the “optionality”!

Options Payoff Profile:

Option Prices – Introduction to Volatility

An option’s premium can be made up of one or both of two components:

Based on difference between current futures prices

and the option strike. Only for “in-the-money” options.

Option Premium = Time Value + Intrinsic Value

Depends on: • Time remaining to Expiration • “Moneyness” of the option (i.e., how far is the futures prices from the Strike?) • Volatility of the underlying fu tures prices

Option value is higher for >>> longer time to ex-piry, futures price closer to Strike, and Higher Vola-tility (Vol)

Moneyness terms >>> At-the-money (ATM), In-the-money (ITM), Out-of-the-Money (OTM)

Volatility is a function of price movement…

Measure of uncertainty of asset returns / degree • of price fluctuationWhen prices are rising or falling substantially, • volatility is said to be high.When a futures contract shows little price • movement, volatility is said to below.High volatility generally causes options •

premiums to increase – sometimes very dramatically. Lower volatility environments generally cause options premiums to decline.Relatively easy to calculate “historic” volatility • based on the time-series futures price data.

Technically speaking, Volatility is the standard deviation of daily returns…expressed in annualised terms.

Option Prices – Some Important Concepts

Option Value Recap and Option Delta:Option value made up of time value – and • intrinsic value, if in-the-money.Delta measures the rate of change of an option • value with respect to a price change in the underlying futures contract. Delta is a measure of price sensitivity at any given moment.

Time Value Erosion:Time value of an option erodes as each day passes, accelerating as expiration nears. This characteristic of options is referred to as “time-decay”. If time passes and the underlying futures contract does not move far enough by expiry, the option’s time value will eventually decay to zero.

Note: The OTC market also tends to refer to Strikes in terms of Deltas (10D, 25D etc.). Higher trading activity typically around the 25D mark.

Implied Volatility

Ultimately the cost of an option is determined by supply and demand. We can infer market’s anticipation for risk or expected price change from observed market prices for options.

In other words, option IVol can be seen as a • measure of risk associated with an anticipated movement in the underlying futures price (e.g., due to a policy updates from a central bank, or release of key economic data).For many commodities, we observed an “inverse • leverage effect” (in contrast to the equity markets). IVol levels tend to move (sometimes jump) higher during price increases and high-price periods.IVol is used in the market (in particular the OTC • market) as a proxy for option value…higher IVol consistent with higher option price paid (Vols are activity traded in the market and drive numerous strategies around options trading).

Need to account for the “Volatility Skew” – For a given expiration, IVols can edge higher as you move away from at the-money (ATM) strikes (options theory assumes constant vol across strikes though).

The Vol Skew (and trends in the levels and shape of skew) are likely to provide some useful insights into market demand and aggregate market sentiment around price movements.

The Vol term structure and skews may be combined to create a Vol Surface.

Traders regularly use vol surfaces to assess trading and arbitrage opportunities.

This is just a representative example (not based on gold market data) Source: Reuters

Tracking Volatility in the Gold Markets

From the CME Risk Management Handbook – “IVol is forward-looking assessment of underlying futures price risk, whereas HVol is backward-looking assessment of where price risk has been.”

Key Takeaway: Market’s assessment of volatility can shift quite a bit.

COMEX Options Markets – Volumes and Open Interest

Options on metals futures products provide the liquidity, flexibility and market depth needed to achieve market participants trading objectives……from the simple to the most sophisticated of trading strategies.

COMEX has one of the most liquid precious metals futures and options markets in the world.

Option contracts based on our flagship futures contracts that are global benchmarks.

2012 Daily volumes:Gold Options: 40,000 contractsGold Futures: 190,000 contractsSilver Options: 7,000 contractsSilver Futures: 55,000 contracts

2012 Open Interest:Gold Options: 1.2 million contractsGold Futures: 425,000 contracts

Silver Options: 190,000 contractsSilver Futures: 115,000 contracts

We have seen a remarkable growth in our options markets driven by an increase in electronic trading volumes via our Globex platform.

Gold option volumes grew almost 4-fold over the • past 5 years to average around 40,000 contracts changing hands daily in first half of 2012.

Almost 45% of our gold option volumes come • viaour Globex electronic trading platform.

It is noteworthy that electronic trading activity • in gold options was virtually non-existent back in early-2007.

However, the open outcry and off-exchange • (ClearPort) venues still important for options - especially when it comes to executing complex option strategies.

COMEX Options Products – Contract Specifications

Short-Term Gold OptionsOur ST Gold Options are physically-settled options with expiries over the next 5 business days. These are European-style options with automatic exercise on expiration.

COMEX Options Products – Some Important Information

Gold Option Specs RecapOne standard monthly option contract (OG) • delivers into one futures contract.

One Gold futures contract (GC) constitutes a • contract for delivery of 100 troy oz. of Gold to an Exchange-approved depository at a specific date in the future.

One options contract would allow the buyer or • assign the seller to take or give possession of one corresponding underlying futures contract

the specific date of each contract.

Options Expiration Procedure / monthly options Settlement is based on the COMEX close at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time (ET). Abandonments and assignments must be submitted to the Exchange by 4:30 p.m. ET.

Option Buyers exercise and sellers get assigned.

Notice of exercise and abandonments are generally given by 8:00 p.m. ET.

MarginsAn option buyer must only put up the amount • of the premium, in full, at the time of the trade.

However, because option selling involves more risk, an option seller or writer will be required to post performance bond.

Once an options position is exercised into a • futures position, performance bond is required, just as for any other futures position.

Cycle MonthsGold options settle into underlying futures contracts on a cycle-month schedule.

For example, a November options contract exercises into a December futures contract. Since the December futures price is generally different from

the November futures price, the option must be valued with the December (Cycle Month) price in mind.

Tools Available on CME Metals Website – Open Interest Profile

Our Metals Options Open Interest Profile provides powerful insights into open interest patterns for our core option contracts.

Why is this valuable? Options incorporate Calls/• Puts, variety of contract months, and a wide range of Strikes.

Market participants can assess market sentiment • and liquidity pools in the option markets.

Can also help market participants draw • inferences around likely support and resistance levels.

Can also help identify “pin risk” potential • around certain strikes.

Some Basic Strategies – Downside Protection

Options can be used to provide effective downside protection – but an options hedging strategy likely to require careful consideration and preparation.

A word of caution – Options can be effective • risk management instruments, but you need to have a good understanding of the entailed risks and operational aspects of options trading (especially if you are selling options).

Further, there may be regulatory restrictions that • are likely to restrict your ability to access the global options markets – it is very important to have a thorough knowledge of these.

Call or Put Protection

Within options-based hedging, buying Calls (for metal consumers) or Puts (for metal distributors) for price protection is the most basic and relatively straightforward strategy.

Can be rather expensive though:

Realised Floor Price

Strike= Premium paid= Basis, if any (may be positive too)= Exchange fee / Broker’s commission= Floor Price

Example – A gold dealer looking to sell metal in December may purchase 90% Dec-12 Puts. Present Dec-12 futures price $1619.2/oz (16-Aug settle). Closest Put Strike is $1455.

Premium: $10.50 (at 16-Aug settle) / less than 1% of notional

Realised Floor at approx $1,443 (assuming no basis or brokerage fees)

Some Basic Strategies – Downside Protection

Option spreads can be used to reduce the strategy cost, while enabling reasonable price protection.

Call or Put SpreadsPurchasing Call- or Put-spreads enables price protection over a specific price range, as against complete downside risk protection (i.e., some tail risk remains).

Can be used to take advantage of the vol skew in periods of elevated volatility.

“Leg-risk” needs to be considered when executing.

Following the earlier example – a long 90%-80% Put spread costs $8.50 based on 16-Aug settle (price protection in approx $1445-$1295 range).

Collars / Costless CollarsThese strategies involve forgoing some upside • participation in return for far reduced costs

(as strategy requires selling out-of-the-money Calls).

Can be used to take advantage of the vol skew in • periods of elevated volatility.

“Leg-risk” needs to be considered when • executing.

Following the earlier example – A 90% near-Cashless Collar would likely limit upside to 112% (i.e., price protection at $1450 with upside limit at $1820 based on 16-Aug settle).

Accessing Information

DISCLAIMERFutures trading is not suitable for all investors, and involves the risk of loss. Futures are a leveraged investment, and because only a percentage of a contract’s value is required to trade, it is possible to lose more than the amount of money deposited for a futures position. Therefore, traders should only use funds that they can afford to lose without affecting their lifestyles. And only a portion of those funds should be devoted to any one trade because they cannot expect to profit on every trade. All references to options refer to options on futures unless otherwise stated.

Factors Influencing Cash Costs1.

Major Cost Components2.

South African Gold Mining3.

Metals Prices and Costs4.

Costs and Mine Supply5.

Primar Factors Influencin Cash Costs

Two Distinct Set of Factors Drive Mining Cash Costs:

The first set of factors relates to the actual costs of inputs: Skilled labor, mining materials, equipment, reagents, structural steel, and everything else that goes into running a mine.

The second set of factors relate to the price of the underlying metal of the mine.

higher metal prices encourage mining lower • grade properties driving higher the cash cost curve the price of the metal also influences input costs

Other Factors Influencin Cash Costs

Deep-Level Mining Boosts Cash Costs

This type of mining inherently pushes higher the • mining cash costs because

Of the need for more skilled labor (to deal with • increased complexities associated with such mining)

Intricate infrastructure•

Increased electricity costs (for cooling deep un-• derground shafts )

Overall increase in overhead and maintenance • costs

In the case of some metals, like platinum, depth of mining is rising as metal available at shallow levels has for the most part already been extracted.

Reduced Production Raises Cash Costs

There is an inverse relation between the level of production and the per ounce cash cost.

Higher production helps reduce the fixed cost com-ponents.

Lower production can result from:

Safety related production stoppages• Technical problems• Lower grades•

However

Most cash cost components are variable costs.

As a result of this, the rate at which these costs rise (input cost inflation) plays an important role in influ-encing the overall cash costs

Gold: Near a Cyclical Peak in a Secular Bull Mar-ket

Gold prices are expected to remain high by historical standards, going forward.

Investment Demand

Investors have been purchasing gold for a variety of reasons over the past decade.

Just some of these reasons are:- increased concerns regarding major reserve currencies- two recessions in the past decade (2001, 2007-2009)- negative real interest rates- concerns of inflation

- poor management of issues related to trade, debt, and deficit imbalances

These problems are real and some are • expected to take several years to be resolved.

Investors are expected to continue adding to • their holdings in historically large volumes!

They are • not, however, expected to chase gold prices higher as was seen during the past few years. Instead investors are expected to add to their holding on prices declines.

This is expected to both weigh on gold invest-• ment demand and the price of gold.

Gold Mining Cash Profit Margins in the 1980 and 1990s

Cash Costs and Mine Supply

Most Gold Production Is Profitable Below $1,000

90% of global gold production from primary gold mines was produced at cash costs lower than $1,033 per ounce during the third quarter of 2011.

The flatness of the gold cash cost curve makes gold production relatively less sensitive to changes in the price of the metal.

Cash Costs and Mine Production

There is a lag effect between the margin between cash costs and prices and the increase/decrease in supply

After the strong gains seen between 2008 and • 2011, it is not surprising that the market has taken a long time to consolidate

A forward contract is a non-standardized contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a specified future date at a price and location agreed upon today

A futures contract is a standardized contract between two parties to buy or sell a specified asset of standardized quantity and quality for a price agreed today with delivery and payment occurring at a specified future date. Futures contracts are typically traded on an Exchange (Comes, MCX, TOCOM etc.)

An option contract gives the option buyer the right (but not the obligation) to buy 13 (a Call option) or sell (a Put option) a specific underlying asset (commodities, currency, stocks, indices, debt etc.) at an agreed price (the strike price) during a pre-determined period of time.

Taxation on Gold, Silver and Platinum India vs. Rest of the world

India – Bullion and Jewellery SectorIndia is the world’s largest gold consumer market, • due to its jewellery sector which constitutes approximately 80% of total gold demand.

India has one of the highest savings rate in • the world; estimated at around 30% of the total income, of which, approximately 10% is invested in gold.

Rapid economic growth, urbanisation • and inflation continues to stimulate gold demand in the country

As per 2011 Census, approximately 68.84% • India’s population is in rural areas, which does not have sophisticated banking network/ system

Gold is the second most preferred mode • of investment behind bank deposits

With domestic inflation vis-a-vis strong domestic • demand for the jewellery, in past 10 years, India has witnessed highest average increase in the price of precious metals, as compared to other major economies of the world

Gold Price Increase – Average @ 18.5% • (www.gold.org)Silver Price Increase – Average @ 22.9% • (www.gold.org)

This has a spiralling effect on all other economic indicators

Role of Jewellery in Indian EconomyIndian Jewellery has strong domestic demand as • well as has substantial export market

Gems and Jewellery contributes approximately • 17.5% towards India’s export revenue of FY 2010-2011 and the said percentage contribution has been consistent for over a decade.

Jewellery alone constituted 25% of the total • exports of Gems and Jewellery sector (ie 4.4% of the total export turnover of India)

6% lower rate for goods• 10% standard rate for goods•

Single rate for services• 8%•

SGST• States requested to fix rates on same • basis

Single rate for SGST and CGST in the year of • introduction would be 12-20% for Goods

Effective rate for Services16%•

Advent of GST

GST regime, is absolutely essential to curtail • cascading effect of domestic taxes

Under GST regime, total tax incidence across the • sectors is expected to be around 16%/ 20%, and there is no exception for bullions and jewellery

GST does not provide for concessional • rate of 1%

In most of the developed/ rapidly developing • economies, GST/ VAT on bullion and jewellery, is either exempted or at concessional rates

Further, vide proposal TN/MA/W/61/ • dated 21 September 2005 (as amended from time to time) various signatories to World Trade Organisation has proposed free international trade on bullions and jewellery, in following phases

To reduced the existing customs duty • to [x%] in [y] number of years in equal instalmentsMembers may opt to retain [x%] for • additional period of [z] years without further reducing the ratesComplete duty exemption on import • of gems and jewellery after the end of [z] years

The said proposal is under consideration • for various other members of WTOThere are no comments from India, • however, any acceptance would result in reduction of Customs Duty on import of bullions into India

Under GST regime high tax on bullion, would impact the sustainability of the sector in India

Structured Notes on MCX Gold IndexNew Product Idea

Anshum Bhambri

Why Gold ?

“Put forth thy hand, reach at the glorious gold” – William ShakespeareThese words probably best describe India’s affection towards gold. It is a known fact that India as the larg-est consumer of gold in the world has a fascination for the metal in all its forms - jewellery, bars, coins, ETF’s and now structured notes. Down the genera-tions, Indians have always appreciated gold as a safe haven and a liquid asset. Gold has usually provided scope for capital appreciation and at the same time lent stability to the portfolio

Since the beginning of this year, in an effort to re-duce the trade deficit, the Indian government has been trying to influence the imports of gold by in-creasing the customs duty and controlling the rates at which the customs duty at the time of imports has to be paid. While the government continues with its purpose, we should not lose sight of the fact that the demand for gold in India

One of the ways to reduce the imports of gold and still meet the requirements of the market is to provide products whereby the gold held in private hands (es-

timated to be in excess of 18,000 tones of gold) can be brought into the mainstream. This will not only meet the requirements of the physical market but also provide liquidity to the owners of the metal and into the economy at large. Unfortunately, there is a dearth of opportunities for the holders of the metal to get liquidity against the metals owned.

The large amounts of gold held in private hands and the increase in demand for investment products like coins, bars, ETF’s also indicates that the con-sumer appreciates the value of gold as an investment more than ever before highlighting the fact that the consumer is looking for investment products in gold – the requirement to hold the physical upfrontmay not be there

Why Gold-linked Structured Products ?

There is now a clear opportunity for structured products in India which can allow participation to all types of investors with the flexibility of having physical exposure and not necessarily holding the metal in physical form. Before we dwell further on this, we need to appreciate why there is a need for these products. The main reasons are:

- Ability to enjoy the yield of the asset- Protection of capital- Comfort of being able to buy the asset in physical form as and when required; and- Ability to exit at ease.

At present the two common products where one can invest without holding physical gold are ETF’s and gold future contracts.These products provide an op-portunity in invest in gold but have their drawbacks as they do not provide capital protection

Product IdeaTheme

We, at Quant Capital believe that gold is prone to downside weakness in the near to medium term. However, we are long term gold bulls on account of various macroeconomic scenarios that are likely to play out in the days to come. These include the unfolding of the European debt crisis; the devalua-tion of the US dollar on account of quantitative eas-ing; slow growth and high inflation in the emerging economies and increasing demand for real assets in case there is a flight to safety

To monetize our view, we are launching a 100% cap-ital guaranteed structured product that is bullish on theMCX Gold Index.

The tenor of the structured product is two years and it incorporates asianing (i.e. averaging feature) to ascertain the initial level and final level for the strat-egy

To elaborate further, the initial level (or the entry point) of the strategy is fixed to the arithmetic av-erage of the level of the MCX Gold Index on the first Friday of each of the first three months of the

product. Thus, we can take advantage of our slightly bearish view on gold in the near term. In essence, the asianing feature over the first three months helps the investor to get the best entry point for his bullish strategy

Moreover, the final level of the strategy is set to the arithmetic average of the closing level of the MCX Gold Index on the first Friday of each of the last three months of the strategy. Again, the asianing ef-fect helps the investor to overcome the exposure tothe digital risk that is prevalent on the final day

Product IdeaPayoff Definition

The payoff profile of the structured product is –

If Final Level > = Initial Level,

The investor gets 100% of his capital back and a cou-pon of 28% at the end of two years

If Final Level < Initial Level,The investor gets 100% of his capital back and a cou-pon equal to:

100% * MAX [ 0%, { 28% - 1.2 * (1 – Final Value/Initial Value) } ]

Platinum market introductionPrice trends

Platinum’s all-time price high came in March 2008 when it reached $2,300/oz.

It collapsed in the recession of 2008/2009 but recov-ered strongly in 2009- H1 2011.

It fell sharply in September 2011 and a brief rally in H1 2012 fizzled out to leave it barely higher than in 2007.

Platinum market introductionPlatinum trading at a (growing) discount to gold

Platinum historically trades at a premium to gold.

On only 1% of trading days from 1987 to 2011 was 2.00 it at a discount.

But since Q3 2011 it has been at a discount, at its lowest it was worth just 86% of gold – its worst since the mid-1980s.

This is clearly important in jewellery markets where platinum and gold compete.

Supply trends South African mine production struggling but might still need cuts

Too much production or too little?

Too little? Strikes and safety stoppages meant South African mine production of PGMs in year to May 2012 was lower than at any time since 2003 .

Too much? In May & June output recovered but min-

ers now being urged to cut production to shore up the price. The majors have cut CAPEX which will limit future production.

Production very concentrated and at risk from dis-ruption.

Supply trendsPlatinum autocatalyst recycling set to soar…

Recycling volumes are increasing from autocatalysts, jewellery and electronics.

This trend will continue as platinum-rich European autocatalysts begin to get recycled, although the pace depends on collection rates/legal changes etc.

Over time this reduces the need for expensive South African platinum…

Demand trendsMacro-economy key – especially in Europe

Demand trends – autocatalystsPlatinum increasingly reliant on non-auto markets

Platinum in car catalysts now mainly diesel • vehicles.

EU declining; India growing.•

Future hopes are heavy-duty and non-road ve-• hicles.

Demand trend – autocatalystsElectric vehicles (EVs) struggle to make an impact…

Battery electric vehicles (EVs) do not use PGMs in their catalyst

EVs are now being sold but only in very small amounts – 0.2-0.3% of US market.

Unlikely to be major negative factor on platinum market until at least 2020, if ever.

Other “new” technologies – hybrids and fuelcell vehicles (FCV) do use PGMs

Demand trends – jewelleryAll down to China…for now

Jewellery, net annual demand, 000 oz

Japan key consumer in the 1980s and early 1990s and China since.

Japan has seen lower gross and much lower net purchases as consumers recycle old metal.

Recycling also growing trend in China but market still strong and huge net consumer.
