As at end October 2025, the amount of gold held in London vaults was 8,858 tonnes (a 0.20% increase on previous month), valued at $1.142 trillion, which equates to approximately 708,678 gold bars.

There were also 26,255 tonnes of silver (a 6.8% increase on previous month), valued at $41.3 billion, which equates to approximately 875,154 silver bars.

These figures provide an important insight into London's ability to underpin the physical OTC market.

The publication on the fifth business day of each month of the amount of gold the London vaults were holding at the end of the previous month follows the recent move to publish the equivalent data for silver. It represents a continued move towards greater transparency and timeliness.
