NBP exceeds 20% of reserves with 500 tons of gold

As of April 24, 2025, Poland’s gold reserves have exceeded 500 tons, representing over 20% of the country’s total reserves—five times more than seven years ago, according to the National Bank of Poland (NBP). Gold, valued for its stability, has regained importance amid global uncertainties. NBP has steadily increased its gold holdings, aligning with a global trend among central banks since the 2008 financial crisis. Poland now ranks 13th globally in gold reserves.
About 75% of Poland’s gold is stored abroad, mainly in London and New York, but one-third is planned to be repatriated. In 2024, Poland led globally in gold purchases, acquiring 90 tons.
