HANOI: (Bernama-Xinhua) Vietnamese Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has directed the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) to take measures to stabilise the gold market, following sharp fluctuations in domestic gold prices and a widening gap between domestic and global rates, reported Xinhua quoting the Vietnam News Agency on Wednesday (May 14).
The SBV has been tasked with ensuring that gold price volatility does not undermine the stability and safety of the country's financial and monetary systems, the state owned media quoted Chinh as saying.
