The United States holds the largest official gold reserves in the world by a wide margin, storing over 8,000 metric tons of sovereign bullion reserves managed by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, a significant portion of which is famously secured inside the United States Bullion Depository at Fort Knox and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Additionally, nations like China, Switzerland, and Germany hold massive national reserves.
