Goldman Sachs Predicts Gold Prices To Surge To $3,700 By Late 2025

April 15, 2025

In a bold forecast, Goldman Sachs has increased its gold price prediction to $3,700 per ounce by the end of 2025. This adjustment comes amid unexpected demand from central banks and a strengthening perception of recession risks, drawing investors towards gold ETFs.

Key Points

Initial forecasts pegged the price at $3,300, but central banks’ monthly gold acquisitions, averaging 80 tons — much higher than the 17-ton average before 2022 — have warranted a forecast revision.
Gold prices have already seen a significant increase of over 23% in 2025, surpassing the $3,200 mark for the first time.
Should central banks continue acquiring at an accelerated pace, or if a recession prompts a capital influx into ETFs, gold could rise to $3,880 within this year.

What To Watch

Economists estimate a 45% chance of a U.S. recession within 12 months, potentially redirecting capital to gold ETFs. Should central banks ramp up purchases to 100 tons monthly, or recession-driven demand persist, gold might reach $3,880 by year-end. Alternatively, if economies show resilience and political uncertainty lessens, gold prices could stabilize around $3,550.

Empowering Change At The Women Who Built Europe Summit

Cyprus presented its approach to inclusive innovation at the Women Who Built Europe summit in Brussels, highlighting the work of 35 women from government, business and technology. Chief Scientist Demetris Skourides said closing the gender gap in research and innovation requires a shift in how leadership is approached, with a stronger focus on inclusion.

Structural And Cultural Shifts For Inclusive Growth

Speaking during a fireside chat at the Council of the European Union, Skourides said progress depends on both policy changes and broader cultural shifts. He pointed to the importance of collaboration across teams and sectors, noting that changing perceptions is as important as introducing new measures.

Policy Initiatives And Notable Achievements

Skourides outlined several initiatives led by the Research and Innovation Foundation (RIF) to support women in science and research. Between 2023 and 2025, the foundation launched 90 calls for proposals with a total budget of €100 million. These programmes created 739 jobs in research and innovation, including 209 roles filled by women. Female participation in leadership has also increased. Women led 61.16% of submitted proposals, while 76.4% of funded projects were coordinated by women.

Reinforcing Cyprus’ Role In STEM And Global Innovation

Cyprus’ national agenda reflects a strategic commitment to gender equality across all sectors. Women now represent 42.3% of participants in science, engineering, and STEM, 29.3% in ICT, and 37% of the cabinet, bolstered by initiatives such as Women for Tech and Women for Cyber. The summit also drew influential voices, including European Parliament member Tsvetelina Penkova and EU Female Founders president Monika Stanisheva, exemplifying the robust network of female leadership.

Historical Impact And A Vision For The Future

Skourides placed Cyprus’ advancements in a broader historical context, recalling over two centuries of female influence in shaping technological fields from programming languages to quantum technologies. He invoked the legacies of pioneers such as Ada Lovelace and Parisa Tabriz to illustrate the enduring impact of women in technology. Additionally, he addressed the performance-funding paradox by referencing research that demonstrates up to a 35% higher return on investment for companies led by women, further substantiated by leadership traits observed in Fortune 500 firms.

Leading By Example At Home And Abroad

The Cypriot delegation highlighted 35 women across different sectors, including public service, technology and healthcare. Their work reflects a broader shift toward more inclusive leadership and serves as a reference point for future initiatives.

Call To Action For A Future Of Inclusive Leadership

Skourides said progress will depend on strengthening networks, sharing experience and building partnerships at an international level. He encouraged women to take on leadership roles and contribute actively to shaping the future of innovation.
