Dublin, April 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Gold Bullion Market Report 2026" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets's offering.

The gold bullion market is poised for substantial growth, escalating from $86.42 billion in 2025 to an anticipated $97.72 billion in 2026, reflecting a CAGR of 13.1%. This increase is driven by factors such as central bank gold reserves, gold's role as an inflation hedge, and investor trust, underscoring the precious metal's enduring value globally. Notably, the market size is projected to reach $159.41 billion by 2030, maintaining a robust CAGR of 13%. Key influences include rising geopolitical tensions, demand for safe-haven assets, the rise of digital investment platforms, and enhanced retail bullion participation.

Emerging trends in the sector include increased institutional investment in physical gold, growing demand for secure bullion storage, and consumer preference for high-purity minted bars. The expansion of digital gold trading platforms and a heightened focus on supply chain traceability further propel market dynamics. Jewelry demand, in particular, serves as a significant driver, highlighted by a rise from 2,089 metric tons in 2022 to 2,093 metric tons in 2023, representing an 8% value increase to a record $131 billion, as reported by the World Gold Council.

Market innovation is exemplified by developments such as HSBC Holding Plc's introduction of the HSBC Gold Token in December 2023. This tokenized gold product facilitates fractional ownership of physical gold through digital tokens, enabling accessible and secure investment. Additionally, Newmont Corporation's acquisition of Newcrest Mining Limited for $16.8 billion in November 2023 exemplifies strategic expansion, enhancing Newmont's portfolio and merging with Newcrest's extensive holdings to optimize operations and sustainability. Major industry players like Zijin Mining Group Co. Ltd., Newmont Corporation, Barrick Gold Corporation, and others continue to shape this dynamic sector.

The Asia-Pacific region led the market in 2025, with substantial coverage across geographies including Australia, China, India, and the USA. The market encompasses sales of gold rounds and ingots, highlighting the 'factory gate' value concept, capturing the manufacturers' or creators' sales directly to end customers or through intermediaries. Revenue assessments are based on consumption values within specified geographies, excluding resale-based revenues along the supply chain.
