Gold Reserve Transparency Act of 2025

This bill requires the U.S. government to conduct a comprehensive audit of all gold reserves held by federal agencies, including gold stored in deep storage or held by third parties like the International Monetary Fund or foreign central banks. The audit, to be completed within nine months of enactment and repeated every five years, will cover physical inventory, security measures, all transactions (sales, leases, swaps) over the past 50 years, and any gold the government has an interest in through third parties. The Comptroller General must issue a public report detailing all findings, with minimal redactions (only for physical security details), and the Treasury must provide all relevant records without withholding information. This directly affects how the Treasury and Federal Reserve manage and disclose their gold holdings, increasing transparency for Congress and the public.
