Gold Demand Trends: Q4 and Full Year 2025
Total gold demand in 2025, including OTC, exceeded 5,000t for the first time. Combined with the record-breaking run in the gold price – setting 53 new all-time highs during the year – this yielded an unprecedented value of US$555bn (+45% y/y).
Heightened investment activity drove overall demand growth: global gold ETF holdings grew 801t – the second strongest year on record – while bar and coin buying accelerated to reach a 12-year high.
Safe-haven and diversification motives were consistent themes driving investment interest throughout the year, along with price-driven motivations.
Central bank purchases of 863t reached the upper end of our expected 2025 range; they remain historically elevated and geographically widespread but have slowed from their recent pace.
