Political shifts abroad have led to questions about Germany’s gold strategy. Economists are debating the safety of overseas storage.
Germany holds nearly €450 billion worth of gold, with a large share in US vaults. This arrangement has historical roots.
Supporters of repatriation argue that sovereignty should take priority. They believe gold should be stored domestically.
Opponents say the benefits of global storage remain strong. They warn against undermining international trust.
Officials say there is no cause for concern. The debate continues among experts.
