Pakistan’s Gold Reserves Increase By $3.5 Billion in 7 Months

Pakistan’s gold reserves have increased sharply during the first seven months of the current fiscal year, according to the State Bank of Pakistan.

The central bank reported that the total value of the country’s gold reserves has now reached 10.374 billion dollars. In June 2025, the reserves were valued at 6.84 billion dollars, showing a strong rise over a short period.

January 2026 was especially important for this growth. During that single month, gold reserves increased by 1.279 billion dollars. Since the beginning of the fiscal year, the total increase has reached 3.5 billion dollars. This steady rise highlights a clear upward trend in the country’s reserve assets.

At present, Pakistan holds about 64.76 tons of gold. This amount equals roughly 2.082 million ounces or about 5.552 million tolas.

These figures show the significant size of the country’s gold holdings. Gold is considered a safe and valuable asset, often used by central banks to strengthen financial security and reduce risks during economic uncertainty.

The increase in gold reserves reflects careful financial planning and stronger reserve management. Higher reserves can help improve investor confidence and provide support to the national economy during challenging times.

Economic observers believe that maintaining healthy reserves is important for exchange rate stability and overall financial strength.

The latest data indicates that Pakistan’s financial position has improved in terms of reserve accumulation, which may contribute positively to long-term economic stability.
