Silver Fixing Company to Stop Running London Benchmark

“The company that runs the London silver fixing, a benchmark dating back more than a century, will stop running the process after Deutsche Bank AG said two weeks ago that it was dropping out of the price-setting ritual.  The London Silver Market Fixing Ltd. will stop administering the fixing on Aug. 14, it said today in a statement.  Regulators have been stepping up their scrutiny of how gold and silver prices are set in the wake of the London interbank offered rate-manipulation scandal. The FCA is visiting member banks involved in the gold fixing as part of its review of gold benchmarks.  Deutsche Bank has said it is leaving fixings as it scales back its commodities business.”
