Germany is considering the risks associated with keeping gold in foreign vaults. Economists are questioning whether past assumptions still apply.
The country holds nearly €450 billion worth of gold, with a significant portion stored in the US. This strategy has long been considered prudent.

Others believe the concerns are overstated. They emphasize Germany’s strong legal protections.
Officials say there is no cause for immediate concern. The debate continues among experts.
