荷兰中央银行宣布将86吨黄金储备从美国和加拿大转移至英国伦敦1。此举在3月至8月期间完成，其中59吨纽约黄金被出售并在伦敦购买替代品，另有27吨从美国和加拿大运回荷兰1。荷兰黄金储备总计612.4吨，2025年估值72.2亿欧元（116.7亿美元）1。
荷兰中央银行行长Olaf Sleijpen表示："我们预期永远不需要使用它们，但我们需要加强抵御能力和准备"1。澳大利亚研究所国际安全事务主任Emma Shortis指出，特朗普政府对加拿大和格陵兰的威胁是这一举措的主要驱动因素1。法国银行在2025年也出售了129吨纽约储备黄金并在欧洲购买替代品，获利110亿欧元1。德国央行曾在2013-2017年间从巴黎和纽约遣返674吨黄金1。这一系列举措表明欧洲国家正在重新评估其在美国的黄金储存安全性。
The Dutch central bank has undertaken a significant shift in its gold storage strategy, relocating 86 tonnes of bullion from the United States and Canada to London between March and August 2025 1. The move reflects growing European anxiety over international security and financial stability in an increasingly uncertain geopolitical environment.
Of the 86 tonnes transferred, 59 tonnes were sold from New York holdings and replaced with purchases made in London, while an additional 27 tonnes were returned directly to the Netherlands 1. This restructuring represents a deliberate recalibration of where the Netherlands safeguards its monetary reserves, which total 612.4 tonnes valued at approximately €7.22 billion (USD 11.67 billion) in 2025 1. Olaf Sleijpen, president of the Dutch National Bank, explained the rationale, stating: "We expect never to need them, but we need to strengthen our resilience and preparation" 1.
The reallocation is emblematic of broader European concerns about the current geopolitical trajectory. Emma Shortis, director of international security affairs at the Australia Institute, identified the Trump administration's threats toward Canada and Greenland as primary drivers of the decision 1. The Netherlands is not alone in reconsidering its gold storage arrangements; France sold 129 tonnes of its New York reserves in 2025, purchasing replacements in Europe and generating €11 billion in profits 1, while Germany completed a substantial repatriation effort between 2013 and 2017, bringing home 674 tonnes of gold from Paris and New York 1.
