Target: Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX), Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), Ministry of Finance (India), and international financial regulators
Goal: We call on the Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX), global financial regulators, and governments to ensure ethical gold sourcing, transparency in trading, and to prioritize peaceful resolutions to international conflicts.
Gold and silver prices are often influenced by geopolitical events, such as the recent meeting between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, and ongoing discussions about the war in Ukraine. While markets react to these events, the underlying issues of conflict, human rights abuses, and environmental destruction in gold mining regions are frequently overlooked.
We urge financial institutions and regulators to take meaningful action to ensure that the gold traded on platforms like MCX is sourced responsibly, without fueling conflict or exploitation. Additionally, we support diplomatic efforts to end wars and promote peace, which can stabilize markets and protect vulnerable communities worldwide.
