Advantages of the Gold Standard
y People feel secure about their fiat money if they know theycan trade it in for gold.
y It is supposed to prevent the government from printing toomuch paper money.
y In reality, since the chances of everyone trading in their fiatmoney for gold on the same day is slim, governments just
maintain the appearance of it.

Disadvantages of the Gold Standard
y 1.) If the amount of gold in the treasury does not growas fast as the economy, the money supply can not expand
and economic growth will be restricted.y 2.) If everybody trades their money in for gold, the
nations gold reserve will disappear.
y 3.) Since the price of gold changes dramatically over
time, any government that tries to fix the price of goldhas huge market pressures working against it.

Demand for & Supply of Gold
To explain the ever-increasing demand for gold in India, various
hypotheses have been put forward from time to time:
y (i) Demand for gold has an autonomous character. Supply follows
demand.
y (ii) Demand exhibits income elasticity, particularly in the rural and
semi-urban areas.
y (iii) Price differential creates import demand, particularly illegal
import prior to the commencement of liberalization in 1990.
y (iv) A part of the demand is caused by the need to stash away
unaccounted wealth/income.
