Central banks from seven countries—Poland, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, China, Turkey, Czech Republic, and Cambodia—purchased significant amounts of gold in recent months. Their combined buying pushed the total value of gold purchases over $1 billion, according to market observers.

Other nations, such as Ghana, Qatar, India, Serbia, Kyrgyz Republic, Bulgaria, Egypt, Jordan, Slovenia, Zimbabwe, and the Philippines, also increased their central bank gold reserves. This heightened demand played a key role in pushing prices higher.

According to reports, a group of developing countries is diversifying foreign currency reserves by accumulating gold. The strong demand for the metal continues to impact global prices. The XAU/USD index has gained 54% since the start of the year, making gold one of the best-performing assets in 2025.

Investors in gold, silver, and copper have seen double-digit profits this year as all three metals remain in high demand from both retail buyers and manufacturing sectors. Analysts say the trend of central banks buying gold has had a clear effect on the direction of the market.
