The World Gold Council's press release on the Dutch sale is yet another example of that organization's unfortunate tendency to serve as apologist for the central banks instead of advocate for the gold industry.
Their immediate purpose and effect would be to facilitate gold leasing by enabling the bullion banks to hedge more easily short positions resulting from the sale of leased gold.
Indeed, as the so-called gold carry trade grew, demand for this sort of hedging by bullion banks likely strengthened since here, unlike in mining finance, their customers were not themselves producers of gold.
