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.

Enhancing Transparency And Efficiency

Under the new rules, rent payments will no longer be accepted through non-electronic methods. Implementation of the measure forms part of the broader transition toward electronic transactions in the property rental sector.

Preparing For A Digital Future

Property owners, tenants and businesses are expected to ensure that payment arrangements comply with the new requirements before the rules take effect on 1 July 2026. All qualifying rental payments made after that date must be made using electronic payment methods.
