Is Basel III setting up a new gold-backed monetary system?
April 21, 2025
Excerpt: ”Basel III and the US”
”The implementation of Basel III across the global banking system has been ongoing since 2019, but the United States has not yet moved to it.”
”This, however, is about to change. As of July 1, 2025, the US will adopt gold as a Tier 1 asset under Basel III regulations — thus aligning US bank capital rules with global standards. The reforms will impact larger banks, those with $100 billion or more in assets, more significantly.”
”The Basel III regulation change will only increase the institutional demand for gold… which will continue to drive the gold bull market that’s underway.”
”But Basel III is changing the game. Under the new rules banks must hold physical gold; there can no longer be this huge reliance on unallocated contracts. The system is crumbling in live time.”
”Central banks are buying gold because of protection against currency instability, as global debt reaches unsustainable levels. When trust in fiat currencies is shattered it is gold that will act as a true hedge against inflation and a safeguard against devaluation.”
