Central banks worldwide purchased a record 1,037 tonnes of gold over the past twelve months. China added 225 tonnes bringing total holdings to 2,258 tonnes. India added 67 tonnes citing portfolio diversification. Saudi Arabia initiated a sovereign gold programme for the first time. For gold market analysts, sustained central bank demand provides a structural price floor.
