Basel III Makes It Official: Gold Is Money Again

9 maj 2025

”As of July 1, 2025, gold will officially be classified as a Tier 1, high-quality liquid asset (HQLA) under the Basel III banking regulations. That means U.S. banks can count physical gold, at 100% of its market value, toward their core capital reserves. No longer will it be marked down by 50% as a “Tier 3” asset, as it was under the old rules.”

”This is a seismic shift in how regulators perceive gold, and it’s a long-overdue recognition of what many of us have known for decades: Gold is money. And it’s the kind of money you want to own when the world is on fire.”
”Central Banks Know that Gold Is Real Money. Shouldn’t You?”

”we’ve seen investors increasingly favor physically backed gold ETFs and streaming/royalty companies as lower-risk ways to gain exposure. That’s understandable. These vehicles offer gold’s upside with fewer operational headaches.”

”But let’s not forget that miners still dig the stuff out of the ground. When margins improve, they can offer significant torque.”
