Extended data

The payment of world currency between countries has caused the international circulation of gold. With the change of balance of payments and exchange rate, it is constantly transferred from one country to another. This flow is spontaneous and depends on the situation in the international political and economic field and the foreign political and economic ties of various countries. The former reflects and is influenced by the latter.

However, the international circulation of gold as a world currency is different from its nature as a commodity flowing between countries. For example, when a gold producer sells its gold abroad, it is exported as a commodity, not as a world currency.
