“The Mexican government audit office has reprimanded the Bank of Mexico for failing to verify its supposed purchase of $4.5 billion of gold vaulted at the Bank of England. The audit office confirms a complaint last year that the Bank of Mexico had purchased only ‘paper gold’ at the Bank of England and had no idea of the number of bars it had supposedly purchased, nor of the purity of the bars. The audit office has recommended that the Bank of Mexico ‘make a physical inspection with the counterparty that has the gold under its custody, in order to be able to verify and validate its physical wholeness and the compliance with the terms and conditions of dealing with this asset.'”
