Germany Considering Pulling €113 Billion in Gold from U.S. Over Trust Concerns
Germany may soon withdraw over 1,200 tons of gold—worth approximately €113 billion—from the U.S. Federal Reserve in New York, amid growing fears that Washington is no longer a reliable partner. The potential move, confirmed by senior officials in Germany’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU), follows escalating concern in Berlin over Trump’s unpredictable economic and foreign policies.
Key details:
• Germany holds the second-largest gold reserves in the world, much of it stored abroad.
• 37% of its reserves are held in New York to guarantee global liquidity, especially in U.S. dollars.
• Officials in Berlin now fear the gold may not be secure, particularly if U.S.-EU relations worsen under Trump’s administration.
• A full repatriation of these reserves is now under serious consideration as Germany looks to diversify risk and reassert financial sovereignty.
This development could have major implications for the global financial system, U.S.-Germany relations, and the perception of U.S. custodianship of foreign assets. If Germany follows through, it may trigger similar actions by other nations.
