NOTES
* This table was updated in January 2015 and reports data available at that time. Data are
taken from the International Monetary Fund's International Financial Statistics (IFS), January
2015 edition, and other sources where applicable. IFS data are two months in arrears, so
holdings are as of November 2014 for most countries, October 2014 or earlier for late
reporters. The table does not list all gold holders: countries which have not reported their gold
holdings to the IMF in the last six months are not included, while other countries are known to
hold gold but they do not report their holdings publicly. Where the WGC knows of movements
that are not reported to the IMF or misprints, changes have been made.
**The percentage share held in gold of total foreign reserves, as calculated by the World Gold
Council. The value of gold holdings is calculated using the end of month London PM fix gold
price published daily by The London Gold Market Fixing Ltd. In November the end of month
gold price was $1182.75. Data for the value of other reserves are taken from IFS, table ‘Total
Reserves minus Gold’.
1. BIS and IMF balance sheets do not allow this percentage to be calculated. In the case of any
countries, up to date data for other reserves are not available.
2. BIS data are updated each year from the BIS’s annual report to reflect the Bank’s gold
investment assets excluding any gold held in connection with swap operations, under which the
Bank exchanges currencies for physical gold. The bank has an obligation to return the gold at
the end of the contract.
3. West African Economic Monetary Union including the central bank.
4. Includes only "Monetary gold" as of February 2014.
5. Signatories to the fourth Central Bank Gold Agreement which commenced in September
2014. The signatores include: ECB, Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, France,
Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia,
Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland.
6. Gold has been added to Turkey’s balance sheet as a result of a policy accepting gold in its
reserve requirements from commercial banks. Please see this link for information on this policy
action http://www.tcmb.gov....8baaf4c6aaddc20
7. World total as calculated by the IMF. This figure will not reconcile with the country-level data
provided due to difference in how the BIS gold holdings are captured.
