Since interest raterelates to the strength of US Dollar, central bank reserves and investment demand, it could be postulated that during the study in 2019, interest rate and the gold price had risen in tandem. This research further enrichesknowledge and contributes to the advancement of research in goldinvestment, hence enabling researchers, bankers, investors, tradepolicymakers to understand further the investment in Gold-i duringeconomic crises, in particular the current recession triggered by theCovid-19 pandemic.
