The Huoxing Finance report states that, on June 4, the latest report from the World Gold Council showed that after a significant net sale of gold in March, global central banks resumed net purchases in April, collectively adding 17 tons of gold for the month, though overall gold buying remained below the same period last year. Poland led globally with 14 tons purchased in April, bringing its year-to-date accumulation to 45 tons and its total gold reserves to 595 tons. The People’s Bank of China added 8 tons of gold in April, marking the largest monthly increase since December 2024, raising its gold reserves to 2,322 tons and extending its streak of consecutive monthly increases to 18 months. The Czech National Bank continued its gold buying for the 38th consecutive month, adding 2 tons in April. Meanwhile, the Central Bank of Russia continued its selling trend, net selling 6 tons of gold in April, bringing its year-to-date sales to 22 tons and marking the fourth consecutive month of net sales. Uzbekistan slightly reduced its holdings by 1 ton in April but still accumulated a net increase of 24 tons for the year, with gold reserves accounting for as high as 88% of its foreign exchange reserves. The World Gold Council noted that central banks in Eastern Europe and Asia remain the primary drivers of global official gold purchases. Over the past 36 months, these two regions have averaged monthly purchases of 12 tons and 11 tons respectively, consistently supporting global gold demand. The 2025 survey revealed that 95% of responding central banks expect global official gold reserves to continue growing over the next year, with 43% planning to further increase their gold holdings—up from 29% the previous year.
