<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1453181, member: 22143&quot;]Yes indeed.&nbsp; The original question was about the relationship between the silver lease rate and the price of silver.&nbsp; This rate only has meaning with the Central Banks and it&#039;s dealers.&nbsp; You are correct that individuals and even businesses don&#039;t get to participate here.&nbsp; &nbsp; It&#039;s got nothing to do with individual who may or may not lease their gold.&nbsp; It was clearly stated above, several times, but people seem to completely ignore it.&nbsp;&nbsp; At least the person who asked the question got his answer. </p><p><br /></p><p>As I said earlier, Central Banks don&#039;t lease gold/silver for profit.&nbsp; Profit is meaningless to an organization which has the power to create money out of thin air.&nbsp; Instead,&nbsp; gold leasing is one of the tools available to monetary policies and market operations conducted by central banks.&nbsp; &nbsp; In regards to Greece, that country is sitting on several hundred tons of it so assuming they move to their own currency then it&#039;s new central bank will used it as backing with the other central banks.&nbsp;&nbsp; (and it&#039;s not done by fiat $ value)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
