Lending Rates are supplied to the FT by NM Rothschild

Note that 1-month Mean Gold Lending Rate ( ie FORWARD rate ) is ZERO. Presumably this is because of the small BACKWARDATION discernible on Comex where the Feb99 contract closed at $289.50 and the Mar99 contract closed at the slightly lower $289.00.
