BoG reports 7.42 tonne increase in gold reserve for 2025 between January and October

Ghana’s gold reserves have recorded a significant boost, with the Bank of Ghana (BoG) adding 7.42 tonnes of gold to its official holdings between January and October 2025.

According to data released by the Central Bank, the accumulation resulted directly from the Bank’s ongoing Domestic Gold Purchase Programme, which seeks to strengthen Ghana’s reserve base and improve its resilience against global economic shocks.

As of January 31, 2025, Ghana’s total gold holdings stood at 30.62 tonnes. Through steady monthly purchases, the figure rose to 38.04 tonnes by October 31, 2025.

The 7.42-tonne increase underscores the BoG’s strategic focus on diversifying the country’s reserve portfolio away from heavy reliance on traditional foreign currency assets.
