This represents the fourth monthly slide in a row.<\/p>\n<p>According to the WGC, &#8220;the combination of higher Treasury yields and a stronger dollar, which weighed on gold\u2019s performance in the month, might have deterred investors from gold ETFs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The body said that while the Federal Reserve paused its rate raising programme, the central bank\u2019s decision to raise its growth and interest rate forecasts &#8220;intensified investor expectation that rates will stay higher for longer, dimming interest in gold.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Total holdings in North America clocked in at 1,648 tonnes at the close of the month, while AUM declined to $99 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Gold ETFs in Europe also reported a net monthly outflow for the fourth successive month. Funds experienced a reversal of 28 tonnes, taking total holdings to 1,443 tonnes. AUMs meanwhile declined $1.4 billion to $87 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The WGC commented that September was &#8220;a month in which the European Central Bank delivered its tenth consecutive rate hike and reiterated that rates will stay \u2018at sufficiently restrictive levels for as long as necessary.\u2019&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The council added that &#8220;while the Bank of England paused hiking, policymakers kept the possibility of further tightening on the table.&#8221; It noted too that the possibility of higher opportunity costs &#8220;may have caused the region\u2019s gold ETFs to unwind further.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Europe\u2019s gold ETF outflows totalled 55 tonnes in the third quarter, WGC data showed, which was equivalent to $3 billion.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Asian ETFs report net inflows<\/h2>\n<p>However, Asian funds enjoyed their seventh consecutive monthly inflow in September. Net ETF inflows totalled 5 tonnes (or $299 million) during the month.<\/p>\n<p>The WGC said that &#8220;China continued to drive the region\u2019s inflow amid increasing promotional efforts from fund providers, the surging local gold price and continued weakness in local assets.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Total holdings in Asia\u2019s gold ETFs rose to 133 tonnes as of the end of September, while AUM edged up to $8.4 billion. For the quarter, net inflows of 13 tonnes or $860 million were recorded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/roystonwild\/2023\/10\/10\/gold-etf-outflows-sped-up-in-septemberworld-gold-council\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) backed by physical gold endured accelerating outflows during September, latest figures from the World Gold Council (WGC) show.
