Poland’s central bank has approved a plan to purchase up to 150 tons of gold, reinforcing its position as the world’s largest reported sovereign buyer and accelerating a reserve strategy that could place the country among the top ten gold-holding nations globally.

The National Bank of Poland said Tuesday the new purchases would significantly expand its bullion holdings, which already reached 550 tons at the end of 2025 following a record 100-ton accumulation last year, the largest declared central-bank purchase reported to the International Monetary Fund. At current market prices, the new buying program would be worth nearly $23 billion and exceed the total gold reserves of several large economies, including Brazil and Mexico.
