Why Central Banks Are Buying Gold at Record Pace — And What It Means for You
Central banks purchased over 1,100 tonnes of gold in 2025, marking the third consecutive year of extraordinary buying. This unprecedented demand is reshaping the gold market, and Tamara Vogue investors are well-positioned to benefit.
The Numbers Behind the Trend
| Year | Central Bank Purchases | Price Impact |
|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 1,082 tonnes | +18% annual |
| 2023 | 1,037 tonnes | +13% annual |
| 2024 | 1,045 tonnes | +27% annual |
| 2025 | 1,100+ tonnes | +22% annual |
Why Are Central Banks Buying?
De-dollarization: After Western sanctions froze Russian reserves in 2022, many nations accelerated diversification away from dollar-denominated assets. Gold offers sovereignty — no government can freeze or sanction physical gold.
Inflation Protection: Central banks themselves understand inflation better than anyone. Their gold buying signals a long-term view that inflation will remain elevated.
Reserve Diversification: Many emerging market central banks hold less than 10% of reserves in gold, compared to 60-70% for Western nations. The catch-up buying could continue for decades.
