Febra galbenă instituțională: De ce devine aurul noul rege al rezervelor globale de criză? • Newsweek România

Central banks are increasingly purchasing physical gold as a safeguard against geopolitical risks, driving prices to historic highs. The shift in financial paradigms, particularly after Western sanctions on Russia, has led emerging economies to recognize the political risks associated with traditional dollar reserves. A recent World Gold Council survey indicates a significant decline in confidence in the US dollar, with many countries, including BRICS+ members, systematically acquiring gold to secure financial independence. Regulatory changes have also classified physical gold as a Tier 1 asset, further incentivizing its accumulation. Amid global economic instability, gold remains a reliable store of value and liquidity during crises.
