Mr. Salem delivers the closing speech at the WFDB President's Meeting 2022 |
|
“Hello from Dubai, where I am attending the WFDB 2022 Presidents meeting on behalf of our DCWC!
A sentiment of optimism and happiness over a roaring and very active Diamond and Jewelry Industry is being expressed here, together with a call for increased marketing, and a call for transparency and responsible trading. Words like traceability, the origin of provenance, and sustainability are becoming integral words of our industry. Angola’s minister of minerals and natural resources announces the opening of their bourse and diamond hub.
De Beers and Alrosa are predicting a continuous strong market, yet warning of price speculation.
Just a short report to our members, Best Regards to all.
- Moshe Salem, President of DCWC
Vice-President of WFDB.
