Gold Exposure Hits 32-Year High as Central Banks and Investors Pile In
Share:
Central bank gold reserves rose to 26.6% of total reserves in 2025 (the highest since 1993), private investor allocations hit 2.7% (the most since 1984), and Japan’s gold exports reached $25.5B with net exports topping 200 metric tons in FY2025. This 32-year high in gold exposure signals stronger demand for hard assets for reserve diversification and inflation protection, which could divert capital from risk assets and weigh on crypto, DeFi, token adoption and trading volumes on CEXs and DEXs.
