Tishwash:  Iraq is the fifth largest Gulf trading partner after exports to it grew by about 50%

Statistics issued by the Gulf Statistics Center showed that Iraq emerged as one of the most important trading partners of the Gulf Cooperation Council countries in 2024 after the value of Gulf exports to it jumped by 47.9%.

The report, which was reviewed by Shafaq News Agency, indicated that the value of Gulf exports to Iraq rose to $35.5 billion in 2024, compared to $24 billion in 2023, with Iraq replacing the United States of America in fifth place on the list of the most prominent trading partners of the Gulf Cooperation Council.

The Gulf Statistics Center explained that Gulf exports to Iraq included petroleum derivatives, plastics and plastic products, iron and metals, electrical and electronic machinery and equipment, in addition to food and building materials, reflecting the diversity of trade exchange and the broad base of economic cooperation between the two sides.

According to the data, China topped the list of Gulf trading partners, followed by India, Japan and South Korea, with Iraq in fifth place, accounting for 4.2% of total Gulf exports for 2024. link

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Syria’s Pivot to Washington — Realignment of the Middle East Order

Historic U.S.–Syria engagement marks a profound geopolitical shift.

Overview
Ahmed al‑Sharaa, President of Syria, is scheduled to meet with Donald Trump at the White House on 10 November 2025, representing the first official visit by a Syrian head of state to Washington in Syria’s modern history. This follows the U.S.’s recent move to lift several sanctions on Syria and open the door to reconstruction financing. 

Key Developments

• Ahmed al-Sharaa rose from rebel leader to Syrian president, overthrowing the long-standing regime of Bashar al‐Assad in late 2024. 

• The U.S. revoked the terrorist designation of Hayʾat Tahrir al‑Sham (HTS) in July 2025, facilitating engagement with Damascus. 

• The U.S. Treasury issued a licence authorising transactions with Syria’s interim government, central bank and state-enterprises. 

• The diplomatic agenda includes Syria’s participation in a U.S.-led anti-ISIS coalition, possible U.S. military presence in Syria, and reconstruction investment estimated at over $200 billion. 

Why It Matters
This meeting signals more than bilateral diplomacy — it indicates a structural realignment in the Middle East. By moving away from Syria’s traditional alliances (Iran, Russia) toward U.S. and Gulf-Arab partners, Damascus becomes part of a new economic and security architecture. Access to Western capital and reconstruction funding can propel Syria from isolation into the global financial system.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar: Diplomacy & Peace — Syria’s integration into the U.S./Gulf sphere restructures regional alliances.

• Pillar: Finance — Reconstruction spending and sanctions relief mark Syria’s entry into Western-backed capital flows.

• The shift reinforces the idea that diplomatic normalization now goes hand in hand with economic reintegration, underscoring how geopolitics and global finance are converging.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Japan–China Diplomatic Clash Exposes Fault Lines in Asian Security

Social media outburst reveals the fragility of regional diplomacy.

Overview
On 8 November 2025, Xue Jian, the Chinese Consul-General in Osaka, posted a threatening message on X (formerly Twitter) targeting Japan’s newly elected Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, prompting a formal protest by the Japanese government. 

Key Developments

• The post read: “We would have no choice but to cut off that dirty neck that has lunged at us without a moment’s hesitation.” The message was deleted shortly after publication. 

• Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary publicly decried the comments as “extremely inappropriate” and lodged a strong diplomatic protest with Beijing. 

• The U.S. ambassador to Japan echoed concerns, posting on X: “The mask slips — again.” in response to Xue’s remarks. 

• The incident occurs amid heightened tension over Taiwan and Japan’s evolving security posture, influencing regional stability. 

Why It Matters
This episode illustrates how digital diplomacy can escalate into full-blown geopolitical incidents. It reveals the fragility of Asia’s security architecture at a time when Japan is deepening its alignment with Western defence postures, and China is assertively responding. The spill-over into financial and supply-chain risk is real: investor sentiment, trade flows and regional stability are all vulnerable.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar: Diplomacy & Peace — A breakdown in diplomatic protocol signals rising system risk.

• Pillar: Markets — Escalation risks heighten volatility in Asian equities, bond markets and currency flows.

• The event underscores that in the emerging global reset, geopolitical risk is directly influencing financial and economic structures, not just military balances.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Russia Considers Nuclear Testing — Strategic Deterrence Resets

A return to Cold-War nuclear posturing underscores a shifting power order.

Overview
Vladimir Putin has instructed top Russian officials to draw up proposals for potentially resuming full-scale nuclear weapons testing, marking a dramatic reversal from the post-Cold-War status quo. 

Key Developments

• The order comes after U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement that the U.S. would “immediately” resume testing nuclear weapons on an equal basis with other powers. 

• Russia has not carried out an explosive nuclear weapons test since 1990 (Soviet era). The move, if actualised, would escalate arms race dynamics. 

• Analysts say any renewed testing would trigger global ripple-effects: new missile defence races, scrambling of nuclear posture doctrines and higher sovereign risk premiums. 

Why It Matters
The potential resumption of nuclear tests by major powers signals that strategic arms control is unraveling. That increases the risk premium on government debt, puts pressure on safe-haven assets such as gold, and compels states to reassess the financial architecture underpinning global security. For investors and global institutions, this is not just a defence story—it’s a structural risk to the collateral underpinning the financial system.

Implications for the Global Reset

• Pillar: Metals — Heightened security risk boosts demand for precious metals as a hedge.

• Pillar: Diplomacy & Peace — Arms-control breakdown undermines trust across economic alliances.

• This scenario underlines how geopolitical denials of stability drive finance and currency regimes out of equilibrium, signalling a deeper reset of global architecture.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Exxonmobil CEO Optimistic About Returning To Iraq: We Need Guarantees

Posted on2025-11-09 by sotaliraq  ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods expressed optimism about the possibility of ExxonMobil returning to Iraq after the company signed a preliminary agreement to manage, develop and operate the Majnoon oil field in the south of the country.

Woods told Reuters that Exxon needs to ensure the investment is appropriate and to negotiate with the Iraqi government to ensure it is a mutually beneficial agreement, adding that the process is still in its early stages.

He added that oil and gas will play a crucial role for a long time to come, and raised a question about how long they will continue to be used as fuel.

According to Woods, while technological developments may change the use of hydrocarbons in the future, they will continue to be used for other purposes, such as the medical sector.

The CEO of ExxonMobil concluded by saying, “Crude oil and hydrocarbons will play a pivotal role in everyone’s lives for a long time to come.”

On October 8th, the Iraqi government signed a Memorandum of Understanding (HOA) between the Ministry of Oil and the American company ExxonMobil.

Iraq currently produces about four million barrels of oil per day, and aims to exceed six million barrels per day by 2029.

The Majnoon oil field is located 60 kilometers from Basra in southern Iraq, and is one of the largest oil fields in the world, with estimated reserves of about 38 billion barrels.  LINK

Get Ready for the Biggest Financial Crisis yet

Get Ready for the Biggest Financial Crisis yet

Liberty and Finance:  11-8-2025

In an economic environment defined by volatility, soaring inflation, and mounting global debt, traditional financial strategies are failing to protect wealth.

In a recent, critical discussion on Liberty and Finance, host Kaiser Johnson spoke with returning guest Phil Low, founder of the Bitter Draft, to dissect the true dangers lurking beneath the market surface and outline a timeless strategy for financial survival.

Low’s analysis spans the source of our current troubles—dishonest banking—to the defensive architecture of the classical “gentleman’s portfolio,” offering vital clarity on how to navigate the inevitable bust.

Most people believe inflation is simply the cost of doing business. Phil Low argues it is far more insidious, stemming directly from dishonest banking practices that create credit bubbles.

According to Low, banks generate an “illusion of real loanable funds” using fake dollars, which are actually nothing more than artificially expanded credit.

This manufactured liquidity is misread by the market as genuine profit or real capital. The resulting credit expansion doesn’t fuel genuine economic growth; it merely fuels inflation, directing capital to unproductive ventures and creating a massive, unstable overhang of debt.

The danger is clear: when the market realizes these dollars are fake, the resulting collapse won’t just be a recession—it will be a violent unwinding of credit that has been mistaken for wealth.

What happens when the credit bubble finally bursts in a hyperinflationary scenario? Many fear total societal collapse marked by extreme violence.

Low addresses this soberly, drawing parallels to the economic chaos and violence seen in the Weimar Republic during the 1920s.

 While he agrees that social and political violence will increase as economic scarcity tightens its grip, he suggests that modern civilization is unlikely to be fully destroyed.

The key to preventing total societal collapse, Low emphasizes, is unleashing free markets. While the printing of money destroys capital, economic freedom allows real industry and productivity to emerge, effectively preventing mass starvation and dissolving the structural pressures that lead to chaos.

His advice for individuals during such a crisis is simple: maintain personal prudence and rely on proven, resilient assets.

In an unpredictable environment, where conventional wisdom (like the 60/40 stock-bond portfolio) is failing, Low advocates for a return to the classical “Gentleman’s Portfolio.” This strategy is built on diversification across three fundamental pillars of wealth, designed specifically to weather economic collapse and hyperinflation:

Precious metals serve as real money, offering unique liquidity and intrinsic value not tied to any government or banking system.

 Low stresses that gold and silver are essential tools for maintaining purchasing power and facilitating transactions during periods of monetary chaos.

Productive land offers stability, income potential, and the ability to sustain life regardless of the financial system’s health. This asset is the ultimate hedge against both currency devaluation and food scarcity.

While stocks and bonds represent exposure to the financial markets, they are critical because they represent real business investments. Even after a major crash, businesses that produce essential goods and services will continue to operate, offering a route back to wealth accumulation once stability returns.

This triple-diversified approach is crucial not just for balancing risk, but for mitigating the potential for theft, loss, or government confiscation—a very real threat during times of systemic distress.

Low’s advice is straightforward: look closely at the conditions of credit and scrutinize profitability. If a venture only appears rational because of unlimited, cheap credit, it is a bubble waiting to pop.

Ultimately, the best defense is preparedness founded on honesty. Phil Low champions a return to honest banking as the only true way to prevent future bubbles and crashes.

In the meantime, the responsibility falls to the individual to secure their capital. Low advises storing wealth in real money—gold and silver—to ensure protection from the inevitable burst.

FINANCE & GLOBAL RESET — “BRICS Pay: The Quiet Engine of De-Dollarisation”
How a new payment platform is reshaping international settlement and undermining dollar dominance

Key Developments

• The BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) are developing “BRICS Pay”, a cross-border digital payments/settlement platform designed to enable trade in local currencies and reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar and the SWIFT network. 

• The foundational architecture draws on member-states’ national systems — e.g., India’s UPI, China’s CIPS, Russia’s SPFS, Brazil’s Pix — aiming for interoperability under the BRICS umbrella. 

• The 2024 summit in Kazan demonstrated a working prototype in Moscow (October 2024) and committed to greater use of local currencies in intra-BRICS trade. 

• However, multiple sources note significant technical, coordination and political hurdles: differing currency convertibility, divergent member-objectives, and integration challenges remain. 

Analysis — Why This Could Trigger a Global Financial Reset

The emergence of BRICS Pay is more than just a payments innovation: it represents a structural shift in global financial architecture. Key implications:

• Undermining the dollar’s settlement role: By enabling cross-border trade in local currencies and bypassing U.S.-dominated rails (SWIFT, dollar-clearing systems), BRICS Pay threatens one of the core pillars of U.S. financial hegemony (i.e., dollar dominance).

• Multipolar settlement networks: Rather than one global system anchored on the West, what’s forming is a parallel network of payment and messaging systems (national + interoperable) across major emerging economies. This diversification erodes single-point dominance.

• New reserve/currency dynamics: While BRICS is not yet issuing a unified currency, the shift toward local-currency settlement and reduced dollar reliance is laying the groundwork for alternate reserve/settlement regimes. 

• Resilience to sanctions and financial coercion: One reason cited for this move is the weaponisation of USD/Western-controlled systems via sanctions. A separate BRICS payment architecture reduces vulnerability to such tools. 

Together, these shift-points indicate we are entering a phase of structural reset in global finance — not merely a cyclical adjustment but an architectural redesign of how money, settlement, and cross-border trade operate.

Why It Matters

• For reserve-currency investors, the familiar calculus (invest in dollar-assets because of global demand for dollars) may face disruption. A move toward non-dollar rails raises dislocation risk.

• Countries reliant on dollar-settlements for trade or reserves face increasing competition from networks that bypass them — geopolitical as well as economic exposure must be re-assessed.

• Private-sector finance (banks, payment providers) will need to track emerging rails — BRICS-native and otherwise — to avoid being locked out of future corridors.

• The shift may accelerate fragmentation of the global financial system: instead of one dominant settlement layer, multiple overlapping networks emerge, and this increases complexity, counterparty risk, and need for new governance/standards.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Tishwash:  Al-Saabri: The next parliament is required to legislate the oil and gas law.

MP Hussein al-Saabri affirmed on Saturday that the upcoming parliament is required to overcome all political differences and proceed with enacting the oil and gas law, as it is one of the most prominent pieces of legislation postponed from previous sessions.  

Al-Saabri told the Information Agency that “engaging the law will establish a clear legal framework for managing oil and gas resources and guarantee the rights of all parties, thus enhancing fairness in revenue distribution and reducing ongoing disputes.”  
He added that "postponing the law over the past years has negatively impacted the national economy and led to continued disagreements regarding oil management and export," explaining that "the next phase requires genuine political will to resolve this vital issue, which is directly linked to the state budget and its economic stability."  link

Tishwash:  Iraq avoids budget deficit thanks to one factor... Expert reveals the secret

Economic expert, Salah Nouri, revealed that the Financial Management Law No. 6 of 2019 served as a safety valve that saved Iraq from entering a state of financial deficit by addressing cases of delay in approving the federal general budget law or its failure to be approved on the specified dates.

Nouri told Al-Furat News Agency that: “The Financial Management Law has addressed several cases related to the approval of the federal general budget law,” noting that “Article 13 stipulated clear procedures to ensure the continuity of spending even if the budget is delayed beyond December 31 of the year preceding the year in which it was prepared.”

He explained that "the aforementioned article authorized the Minister of Finance to issue an official circular based on specific criteria, whereby it permits spending at a rate of {1/12} or less of the total actual expenditures for current expenses for the previous fiscal year, after excluding non-recurring expenses, to ensure the continuity of employee salaries and the operation of government facilities without interruption."

Nouri added that "the same article allowed for spending from the total annual allocation for ongoing investment projects whose allocations were included during the previous and subsequent fiscal years, according to the actual completion rates or completed stages of preparation, with the aim of preventing the suspension of projects under implementation."

The economist explained that “the third paragraph of the article accurately addressed the situation of the budget not being approved at all, as it stipulated that the final financial data of the previous year be adopted as the basis for the financial data of the new year, provided that this data is submitted to the House of Representatives for the purpose of approval, which ensures the continuation of the state’s financial activity in a legal and organized manner.”

Nouri stressed that “this article, with its three paragraphs, represented a comprehensive solution to the situation of delaying or not approving the budget at the end of the fiscal year,” explaining that “thanks to it, Iraq avoided falling into financial paralysis, especially since the House of Representatives had previously approved a budget for three years {2023 – 2024 – 2025}, which strengthened financial stability and contributed to regulating government spending within specific and clear ceilings.”   link

LouandDebNC: Indonesia plans Bill to redenominate rupiah, potentially slashing zeros from currency

CNA

JAKARTA: Indonesia's finance ministry said it is planning a new Bill to redenominate the rupiah in an effort to improve economic efficiency, maintain stability and improve the currency’s credibility.

"The Bill on redenomination is a carryover draft Bill that is planned to be finalised in 2027," a ministry regulation reviewed on Saturday showed.

The plan to slash zeros from the currency has been discussed in past years.

The last time the government submitted a draft to Parliament was in 2013. It proposed slashing three zeros of the rupiah banknote, but the draft was shelved. 

It was not immediately clear how many digits would be removed under the latest redenomination plan, though state news agency Antara reported on Saturday (Nov 8) that the Bill proposes removing three zeros from rupiah denominations.

Local news outlet Jakarta Globe reported that the latest measure appeared in Finance Ministry Regulation (PMK) No 70/2025 on the ministry’s 2025–2029 strategic plan, issued on Oct 10 and enacted on Nov 3.

Currently, rupiah banknotes range from 1,000 to 100,000 in denominations. A 100,000 rupiah note is equivalent to US$6. 

Redenomination would remove the number of digits on currency without altering purchasing power or the exchange rate. 

In 2023, Bank Indonesia said it was ready to implement redenomination, but had not yet found the right timing. 

Jakarta Globe reported that policymakers cited three main considerations then: Domestic and global macroeconomic conditions, monetary and financial system stability, and social-political dynamics. 

On the last point, the central bank reportedly emphasised that redenomination is not devaluation, but the public could still be cautious given past experiences with inflation and currency crises.

“THE GREAT DEVELOPMENT FINANCE RETREAT: PRIVATE CAPITAL STEPS IN”

How falling government aid budgets are accelerating a new financial architecture

Key Developments

• OECD nations are slashing Official Development Assistance (ODA) by 9% in 2024, with projections of up to 17% declines in 2025.

• Western governments cite domestic fiscal strain, security costs, and shifting priorities.

• Emerging economies now turn to non-traditional lenders, including China’s Belt & Road channels, Gulf sovereign funds, and private equity consortiums.

Analysis — The Quiet Restructuring of Global Finance

The withdrawal of traditional Western development finance marks a turning point in the global lending order.
For decades, institutions such as the World Bank and OECD donors provided the backbone of infrastructure and poverty reduction programs. As this funding retracts, private finance and bilateral arrangements are rapidly replacing multilateral aid.

This reallocation creates an emerging parallel finance ecosystem:

• Debt-for-asset swaps, especially involving critical infrastructure.

• Commodity-backed lending, reviving patterns last seen in pre-dollar global trade.

• Hybrid finance models where ESG or development outcomes are tied to investor returns.

Such changes could gradually dilute the IMF–World Bank monopoly over global development capital — one of the five pillars underpinning the post-Bretton Woods system.

Why It Matters

The pivot from public to private funding deepens financial polarization:
wealthy nations internalize resources, while capital-seeking economies look elsewhere — often to BRICS-linked or regional solutions.
If sustained, this pattern leads to multi-polar capital formation — a precursor to a broader global financial reset.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

“SUPPLY CHAINS AS WEAPONS: THE NEW DIPLOMACY OF DEPENDENCE”

Why global trade interdependence is becoming the new battleground of peace and power

Key Developments

• China’s shifting demand is reshaping global commodity flows, with soybean and wheat markets seeing price declines as Beijing diversifies suppliers.

• Gulf states, notably Qatar, navigate a volatile geopolitical environment as energy diplomacy collides with Western sanctions and regional realignments.

• Supply-chain dependence and security are replacing ideology as tools of diplomacy.

Analysis — Trade Becomes Strategy

In the post-COVID, post-Ukraine landscape, economic interdependence is weaponized.
Beijing’s strategic commodity management, Washington’s sanctions diplomacy, and Gulf states’ balancing acts all point to a world where diplomacy is executed through supply contracts rather than summits.

The structural impact:

• Regional blocs (ASEAN+, BRICS+, GCC) consolidate to preserve trade autonomy.

• Countries seek dual-track supply chains — one for the U.S./EU sphere, another for BRICS/Eurasia.

• Trade data increasingly mirrors security alliances, not comparative advantage.

This transformation signals the erosion of the globalized “single-market” model, one of the central assumptions of the old world financial order.

Why It Matters

As economic blocs decouple, capital flows, logistics insurance, and currency settlements are all impacted.
A new diplomacy based on resource control and production security replaces the free-trade consensus.
This creates the foundation for regionalized finance and independent settlement systems — a building block in the architecture of the coming financial reset.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

“ASIA’S REBALANCING ACT: JAPAN’S NEW INDUSTRIAL STRATEGY AND THE END OF WESTERN MARKET MONOPOLY”

Tokyo’s pivot under new leadership signals a redistribution of global capital flow

Key Developments

• Japan’s new Prime Minister Taro Takaichi unveils a national industrial investment plan focused on semiconductors, AI, and green manufacturing.

• Improved U.S.–China trade sentiment removes friction for triangular trade opportunities across Asia-Pacific.

• Regional private equity funds and sovereign wealth investors are accelerating investment in Japanese and ASEAN assets.

Analysis — The Next Capital Center of Gravity

The U.S. market’s dominance in global equities and finance may face its first major structural challenger in decades.
Japan’s stable governance, combined with access to both Western and Chinese markets, offers investors a “bridge economy” during geopolitical fragmentation.

Key dynamics to watch:

• Yen-denominated capital instruments attract renewed interest as hedges against dollar volatility.

• Asian venture capital and sovereign funds rise as alternative liquidity hubs.

• Western funds seek co-investment partnerships to maintain exposure without political entanglement.

If sustained, these flows could mark the decentralization of capital pricing power — another pillar of the global reset taking shape through markets rather than policy statements.

Why It Matters

Capital no longer moves solely through New York or London.
As Tokyo and Singapore become new liquidity engines, the valuation logic of the global economy shifts.
This multipolar market ecosystem decentralizes both price discovery and financial influence — key precursors to a post-dollar capital order.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Jon Dowling: Weekly RV Updates for November 7th, 2025

Jon Dowling: Weekly RV Updates for November 7th, 2025

The latest weekly RV (Restored Republic/RV) report for Friday, November 7, 2025, delivered a deep dive into global political maneuvering, shifting economic currents, and critical market insights, focusing particularly on ongoing efforts to combat corruption in Iraq and the proactive defense of U.S. trade interests.

The report opened with a sharp focus on Iraq, where significant political tension continues to escalate.

The U.S. envoy is actively engaged in a complex mission to remove corruption linked to Iranian proxies operating within Iraq’s parliament. This anti-corruption drive is seen as crucial for stabilizing the region and ensuring fair governance.

The spotlight remains fixed on Iraqi Prime Minister Sudani, with intense speculation surrounding the upcoming elections.

The discussion suggests that potential leadership changes are forthcoming, driven by a national push to eliminate graft and usher in a new era of transparency. These political maneuvers signal a concentrated effort to dismantle entrenched systems of corruption that have long plagued the nation.

The report also took a moment to address pressing humanitarian concerns following recent natural disasters. Devastating weather events have severely impacted populations in the Philippines and Vietnam.

 The host specifically appealed to the audience for prayers and support for the communities and families affected by these catastrophic events.

The economic segment of the report provided relief on the energy front alongside crucial insight into U.S. trade policy preparation.

Current trends indicate a welcome decline in crude oil prices. This decrease is expected to translate into reduced operating costs for energy-dependent sectors, most notably transportation and food.

While this should offer relief to consumers, the report noted that the level of savings experienced varies significantly across the U.S., attributing localized disparities to ongoing corruption that prevents the full benefit of lower energy costs from reaching consumers in some states.

Crucially, the host provided a forward-looking forecast, projecting that oil prices will continue their downward trajectory well into December 2025 and extend into 2026.

One of the most significant legal updates concerned President Trump’s robust strategy to protect U.S. manufacturing interests, even if the Supreme Court fails to uphold current tariff collections.

The proposed backup plan involves invoking Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act. This powerful legal mechanism allows the President to impose trade restrictions on imports if they are deemed a threat to U.S. national security.

This action ensures that U.S. manufacturing remains protected from unfair foreign competition, regardless of the judicial outcomes regarding current tariff disputes. Section 232 serves as a critical safety net, highlighting the administration’s commitment to maintaining economic sovereignty.

The update concluded with a focused look at the precious metals market, detailing the current spot prices for silver, gold, and crude oil.

The host delivered an optimistic forecast, emphasizing that a significant rise in the price of precious metals is anticipated following the resolution of current government shutdowns and the subsequent passing of new, transformative legislation.

 This analysis suggests that these assets are positioned for strong gains once the current political and economic uncertainty dissipates.

For those seeking a deeper dive into the geopolitical specifics concerning Iraq, the nuanced legal reasoning behind the Section 232 invocation, and detailed market charts, the full video from Jon Dowling is essential viewing.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

BRICS Gold Surge: $2.5 Billion in Purchases Marks Shift Toward a New Financial Order

How massive bullion acquisitions signal an emerging monetary realignment and a challenge to dollar-based finance.

BRICS Banks Turn to Gold Amid Currency Recalibration

Three leading BRICS nations — Brazil, Russia, and China — collectively purchased nearly 20 tons of gold in September 2025, worth approximately $2.54 billion, as gold prices surged toward $4,000 per ounce, an all-time high.
This unprecedented move underscores a strategic pivot: gold is becoming the preferred reserve hedge as global trust in fiat-based systems wanes.

• Brazil accounted for the largest share, acquiring 15 tons of bullion.

• Russia and China added 3 tons and 2 tons, respectively.

• The timing coincided with gold’s break above the $4,000 threshold, signaling both confidence in the metal’s value and concern about paper-based assets.

Beyond the Numbers: Strategic Intent Behind Gold Accumulation

Gold accumulation among BRICS members is not a short-term hedge; it reflects a structural rebalancing of global reserves.
The trend suggests a deliberate move to anchor future settlement systems in tangible assets — possibly the early groundwork for a gold-linked BRICS trade currency.

• This accumulation builds on a three-year trend of expanding bullion reserves across the bloc.

• Analysts note that, even if not formally announced, the pattern of synchronized purchases implies preemptive coordination.

• The shift indicates waning reliance on the U.S. dollar as a reserve intermediary and increasing interest in multi-asset reserve diversification.

The U.S. Still Dominates — But BRICS Is Rewriting the Narrative

While the United States remains the global leader with 8,133 tons of gold holdings, and Germany follows with 3,350 tons, the collective BRICS stockpile now nears 6,026 tons.
Although individually smaller, the bloc’s combined weight has psychological and geopolitical significance:

• It demonstrates an intent to signal parity with Western reserve norms, not yet to surpass them.

• BRICS nations are effectively using gold as a credibility mechanism — an implicit challenge to the dollar’s “full faith and credit” system.

• The continued discreet nature of BRICS gold purchases—without formal policy declarations—reflects a strategy of quiet accumulation before public architecture.

Gold as the Silent Currency of the Reset

In global financial terms, this pattern fits a broader reset narrative:
when fiat systems approach saturation through debt and monetary expansion, commodity-backed anchors re-emerge as stabilizers.

• Gold’s surge above $4,000 reveals that monetary value is migrating back to scarcity-based assets.

• The bloc’s purchases accelerate a gradual de-dollarization process, where settlement confidence shifts from credit to collateral.

• Central banks are increasingly using gold to absorb systemic inflation while repositioning reserves for a multipolar financial environment.

Implications for the Global Reset

The BRICS accumulation marks more than reserve diversification — it represents a philosophical shift in monetary governance:

• From Trust to Tangibility: Nations seek assets that can’t be sanctioned or devalued by central banks.

• From West to Multi-Center: The dollar’s monopoly on global confidence is being diluted by regional asset-backed experiments.

• From Liquidity to Legitimacy: Gold’s return to central bank balance sheets reflects a deeper question — what truly backs money?

In this emerging order, gold is once again becoming a political instrument — not just a commodity, but a declaration of monetary sovereignty.

The Big Picture

The BRICS bloc is not yet overtaking the dollar, but it is redefining the foundation of global trust.
The real reset won’t come from an official gold-backed currency announcement — it will unfold through accumulation, coordination, and confidence migration.

In essence, the global financial reset has already begun—quietly, in vaults, not in parliaments.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.
