The World Gold Council (WGC) recently published data on the countries of the world that own gold in their international reserves. It follows from them that Qatar bought 9.3 tons of gold, increasing its gold reserves by 30%.

The world official gold reserves of all countries are estimated by the World Gold Council at 33.871.36 tonnes - an increase of +2.19 tonnes compared with the previous period. Its WGC rating is based on the data sent to it by the countries themselves and data received from the IMF. Some states send data with a delay, and some even keep their gold reserves secret, for example, Israel, Iran and North Korea.
