The monetary value of this gold is approximately $4.5 billion. In the first three months of 2026, $193 billion worth of gold was purchased, representing a 70% increase from the previous year. This represents a 70 percent increase compared to the previous year and marks the second-highest second-quarter performance in history. Central banks continue to strengthen reserves with gold, while bank gold purchases rose 3 percent to 244 tons. Sharp rises in gold prices are driving the high total demand value.
