SBV worked with the People’s Committee of Ho Chi Minh City on May 12 to implement the Prime Minister’s direction on coordinating efforts to manage the gold market.
Within the meeting, the two sides agreed to coordinate with each other and relevant agencies to urgently implement measures in accordance with the law and Government Decree No.24/2012/ND-CP, dated April 3, 2012, to manage and operate the domestic gold market in a manner that prevents profiteering, speculation, manipulation, and price pushing.
