Where Data Tells the Story

Gold serves as a safe-haven asset, helping protect a nation’s economy from extreme volatility and global crises.
In today’s visualization, we show the top 30 countries with the most gold reserves in metric tonnes (figures rounded). But most importantly, their share of gold in foreign exchange (FX) reserves.
When a country holds gold as the highest percentage of its FX reserves, it signifies a strategic focus on long-term financial security, asset diversification, and a hedge against inflation or geopolitical crises.
This approach often indicates a lack of faith in major fiat currencies and a desire to minimize counterparty risk.
The data comes from the World Gold Council, as of March 3, 2026.
