It is noted that since the beginning of this century it has seen substantial changes. The investment demand for this precious metal has become the leading consumption drive alongside with the jewelry industry. Besides, the geography of demand has changed substantially, too. Some countries on the Asian continent, primarily India and China, have become the major consumers of gold.</abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru">В статье анализируется структура потребления золота в мире. Отмечается, что она с начала текущего века претерпела существенные изменения. Ведущим источником потребления драгоценного металла наряду с ювелирной промышленностью стал инвестиционный спрос. Кроме того, существенно изменилась и география спроса. Страны азиатского континента, прежде всего Индия и Китай, превратились в главных потребителей золота.</trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>gold</kwd><kwd>gold exchange funds</kwd><kwd>the structure of gold consumption in the world</kwd><kwd>the investment demand on gold</kwd><kwd>jewelry gold</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>золото</kwd><kwd>золотые биржевые фонды</kwd><kwd>структура потребления золота в мире</kwd><kwd>инвестиционный спрос на золото</kwd><kwd>ювелирное золото</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>URL: http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/90001/90778/90862/7094426. html</mixed-citation></ref><ref id="B2"><label>2.</label><mixed-citation>URL: http://finance.yahoo.con/tech-ticker/jp-morgan-gold-could-now-face-%27unlimited%27demand</mixed-citation></ref><ref id="B3"><label>3.</label><mixed-citation>URL: http://wallstreetpit.com/22265-china-is-golds-future</mixed-citation></ref><ref id="B4"><label>4.</label><mixed-citation>URL: www.commodityonline.com/printnews.php?news_id=30180</mixed-citation></ref><ref id="B5"><label>5.</label><mixed-citation>URL: www.moneyweb.com/mw/view/en/page289766?oid=31</mixed-citation></ref><ref id="B6"><label>6.</label><mixed-citation>URL: www.wallstreetpit.com/11826-behind-indias-big-gold-buy</mixed-citation></ref><ref id="B7"><label>7.</label><mixed-citation>URL: www.wsj.com/chinarealtime/2010/10/11/new-pitch-for-gold-location-location-location</mixed-citation></ref><ref id="B8"><label>8.</label><mixed-citation>World Gold Council.
