Pension funds in Western Europe will increase their gold reserves

Purchases of gold are changing, especially for banks. European banks will be bound by a&nbsp;set of new regulations known as Basel&nbsp;III, which will affect the market with precious metals, from 28th&nbsp;June (and banks in the United&nbsp;Kingdom from 1st&nbsp;January&nbsp;2022). From this moment, gold will be promoted to a&nbsp;first-class asset.
