Over the past three years, government institutions have purchased more than 1,000 tons of gold per year. Before 2022 and for around 15 years, it was only about half that amount. Central banks now own approximately 36,000 tons of gold. According to the European Central Bank, gold had overtaken the euro (16 percent) in terms of global reserves at the end of 2024, with a 20 percent share. The US dollar accounts for around 46 percent of global reserves. However, the US dollar has lost trust worldwide. Gold has gained supporters as a safe haven investment due to the attack on the World Trade Center, the coronavirus pandemic, and Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine.

High gold prices have not deterred central banks from buying gold over the past three years. Although they are currently buying slightly less gold, which is not surprising given the prices, the level and the urge to increase gold reserves remain high. And the search for security has not only gripped central banks, but also more and more institutional and private investors. Even though less gold jewelry has been purchased, spending on it has risen, so the investment sector cannot complain about a lack of interest.

Today, therefore, we are in a geopolitical environment in which the supremacy of the US dollar has been dented. US government bonds also no longer appear so attractive in view of the immense US debt. This strengthens the role of gold, which is independent of countries and has proven its value retention function over a long period of time. Gold companies are benefiting significantly from the high gold price and should be part of any well-positioned portfolio.
