The Executive Board, observing that the Fund has had and may continue to have an excess of expenditure over income and that the greater part of the Fund’s administrative expenditures has been and will continue to be in United States dollars, considers that in the interest of good administration and conservation of the Fund’s resources it would be appropriate to raise income towards meeting the deficit by the investment of a portion of the Fund’s gold in a manner which will enable the Fund to reacquire gold at any time and will maintain the gold value of the investment.
