(Reuters) - Cyprus has agreed to sell excess gold reserves to raise around 400 million euros and help finance its part of its bailout, an assessment of Cypriot financing needs prepared by the European Commission showed.

The draft assessment, obtained by Reuters, also said that Cyprus would raise 10.6 billion euros from the winding down of Laiki Bank and the losses imposed on junior bondholders and the deposit-for-equity swap for uninsured deposits in the Bank of Cyprus.

Nicosia would get a further 600 million euros over 3 years from raising the corporate income tax rate and the capital gains tax rate.

Out of the total Cypriot financing needs of 23 billion euros between the second quarter of 2013 and the first quarter of 2016, the euro zone bailout fund will provide 9 billion euros, the International Monetary Fund 1 billion and Cyprus itself will generate 13 billion, the assessment said.

Cyprus is going to sell 400 million euros ($525-million) worth of gold reserves to finance part of its bailout, Reuters reports citing Troika documents.

Cyprus has agreed to sell excess gold reserves, a draft assessment of Cypriot financing needs prepared by the European Commission shows. According to the draft assessment Cyprus would raise the total of 10.6 billion euros, as originally planned, by taxing uninsured depositors at Laiki Bank and Bank of Cyprus

Cyprus has 13.9 tonnes of gold, which is 58.3% of its forex reserves, according to the World Gold Council data for September 2012.

Though 400 million euros worth of gold isn’t going to offset the gold trading market, it has still sent traders into a frenzy. As of 19:09 DST, the COMEX gold index is priced at $1,571, already down 16 points, or 1.15%, in reaction to the Cypriot announcement. With London and Shanghai markets already closed, the New York exchange will broker the fluxuating gold sales.

The International Monetary Fund will still provide 1 billion euros to Cyprus's bailout and the euro zone will still provide 9 billion in aid for the rescue plan.
