路易斯补充说，2023年第一季度积极的季节性因素和央行对黄金的强劲需求预计将有助于中国在2023年保持全球最大黄金消费国的地位。
China's demand for gold jewelry, bars, and coins is expected to bounce back in 2023, as the Chinese economy is set to recover following the optimization of the pandemic policy coupled with a likely consequent rise in disposable income of Chinese households, said Wang Lixin, regional CEO of the WGC (China).
世界黄金协会中国区首席执行官王立新表示，中国对黄金首饰、金条和金币的需求预计将在2023年反弹，因为在疫情防控政策优化后，中国经济将复苏，同时中国家庭可支配收入可能会随之增加。
This boost in gold demand will also be supported by the focus of commercial banks on gold sales, and the growing willingness of investors to purchase gold as an effective and stable store of value, Wang added.
王立新补充说，商业银行对黄金销售的关注，以及投资者越来越愿意购买黄金作为有效和稳定的保值手段，也将支持黄金需求的增长。
