虽然大部分黄金在纽约出售，然后在伦敦回购，但仍有超过 27 吨黄金被实物转移到英国 荷兰央行（DNB）证实，价值数十亿美元的黄金已从北美运出并转移到伦敦，理由是“地缘政治动荡加剧”。
DNB said on Wednesday that 86 tonnes of gold had been removed from the US and Canada in a complex operation that took several months.
DNB 周三表示，经过数月的复杂操作，已从美国和加拿大运走 86 吨黄金。
It is now being held by the Bank of England, where the precious metal can be traded more easily "in a crisis situation". Bank president Olaf Sleijpen said the move was "necessary to strengthen our resilience and preparedness".
它现在由英格兰银行持有，“在危机情况下”贵金属可以更容易地进行交易。 央行行长奥拉夫·斯莱彭（Olaf Sleijpen）表示，此举“对于加强我们的应变能力和准备工作是必要的”。
The decision comes amid an ongoing trade dispute between the US and Canada, with both countries announcing fresh tariffs on each other after failed trade talks.
这一决定是在美国和加拿大之间持续存在的贸易争端之际作出的，两国在贸易谈判失败后宣布对对方征收新的关税。
DNB said the transfer, which took place between March and August, saw 27 tonnes of gold bars moved from New York and Ottawa to Zeist in the Netherlands.
DNB表示，此次转移发生在3月至8月期间，共有27吨金条从纽约和渥太华转移到荷兰的Zeist。

该银行表示，其余的转移是通过在纽约出售黄金并在伦敦回购来完成的。
"Combining the processes of buying and selling and physical transport has allowed DNB to spread the risks associated with such a complex physical gold relocation," the statement said.
声明称：“将买卖和实物运输流程结合起来，使 DNB 能够分散与如此复杂的实物黄金转移相关的风险。”
DNB did not confirm what it was referring to with its mention of "geopolitical unrest" but the US economy remains in an uncertain position due to the country's ongoing war with Iran, which has impacted global trade.
DNB 并未证实其提及的“地缘政治动荡”所指的内容，但由于美国与伊朗的持续战争影响了全球贸易，美国经济仍处于不确定状态。
Canada, meanwhile, has been hit hard by US tariffs on its key sectors of steel, aluminium, lumber and automobiles as well as an additional 50% levy on about C$28bn ($20bn; £15bn) of Canadian goods announced in August.
与此同时，加拿大受到美国对其钢铁、铝、木材和汽车等关键行业征收关税以及8月份宣布对价值约280亿加元（200亿美元；150亿英镑）的加拿大商品额外征收50%关税的沉重打击。
DNB said that gold that is held with the Bank of England "is regarded as the world's most easily tradable gold," and therefore more readily available in a crisis than if it was still in the US or Canada.
DNB表示，英格兰银行持有的黄金“被认为是世界上最容易交易的黄金”，因此在危机中比在美国或加拿大更容易获得。
Prior to Wednesday's announcement, the DNB held 31.3% of its gold in New York and 19.7% in Ottawa.
