China will impose restrictions on the import and export of gold and gold products in accordance with adjustments in demand, the country’s central bank said on Thursday.

“The People’s Bank of China can carry out restrictions of gold and gold product imports and exports in accordance with national macroeconomic adjustments in demand,” the bank said in new trade regulations published on its website (www.pbc.gov.cn).

It also said firms engaging in gold imports and exports bear a responsibility to maintain a balance in supply and demand on the domestic market, and trades need to be registered with gold exchanges approved by the State Council, China’s cabinet.
