What is Gold Reserves?
Gold reserves are the physical gold holdings of a central bank, valued at market or at a statutory price depending on the jurisdiction. They sit alongside foreign-currency reserves as part of total international reserves.
Why it matters for FX
Sustained central-bank gold buying (notably by the PBoC and other emerging-market central banks since 2022) is part of a broader reserve-diversification trend away from USD assets, with long-run implications for reserve-currency status and gold prices. Single-month changes are typically small, but the cumulative trend is meaningful.
How to read this page
