Gold Reserve Transparency Act of 2025
The Gold Reserve Transparency Act of 2025 requires the U.S. government to conduct a comprehensive, independent audit of all federal gold reserves within 9 months of enactment, including a full accounting of all transactions, holdings, and security measures over the past 50 years. This audit must be repeated every 5 years, with results publicly reported within 3 months of completion - excluding only physical security details. The law also mandates that the Treasury upgrade gold reserves to meet current market quality standards (weight and purity) within 5 years. These provisions directly affect the Treasury Department and Federal Reserve, which manage the reserves, and aim to increase transparency about the nation’s gold holdings.
