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.

Greater Focus On Real Economic Activity

The revised framework prioritises companies’ actual economic activity, regardless of the origin of their capital. As part of the changes, the existing register will be renamed the “Business Facilitation Centre Register”.

The new rules also strengthen compliance monitoring and establish procedures for removing companies that fail to meet their obligations. Checks on the 70%–30% employment ratio will be conducted seven years after registration.

Annual Employment Reporting From 2027

From January 1, 2027, registered companies will be required to submit annual employment reports. The measure is intended to improve transparency and help authorities monitor compliance with the framework.

The revisions also clarify the conditions under which companies may retain their registration if their ultimate beneficial owners obtain Cypriot or other EU citizenship.

Part Of A Wider Business And Talent Strategy

According to Damianos, the changes aim to attract companies with a substantive presence, growth potential and a measurable contribution to Cyprus’s economy. The framework introduces clearer procedures and oversight while reinforcing existing obligations.

The decision forms part of a broader review of Cyprus’s Strategy for Attracting Businesses and Talent, which is expected to be completed by December 2026.

The first consultation workshop with the business community and other stakeholders took place on October 28, with a second scheduled for October 29.
