Protection against inflation - Due to the global economic crisis, politics and central banks have massively decreased their interests in recent years; money has been brought into circulation via stabilisation programmes and bailout measures for financial institutions. Many market participants now question how this money can be removed from the market again; otherwise, there is a risk of increased inflation in the current economic cycle. However, as the economy has not yet recovered, strong interventions would destroy all hope for an economic upturn. Therefore, governments and central banks will be very careful in carrying out countermeasures. Although hyperinflation, as experienced in the twenties in the previous century, seems unlikely, gold is seen as protection against increasing monetary devaluation (inflation).
