Venezuela nears deal to move $4 billion gold reserve to New York, FT says

The deal would give the interim government legal control of about $4 billion in bullion but bar an immediate sale, the report said.

  • On Friday, the Financial Times reported that the Venezuelan government and opposition are nearing an agreement to transfer $4 billion in gold reserves from The Bank to the Federal Reserve Bank.
  • The BoE has withheld 31 metric tons of gold since 2019, citing non-recognition of President Nicolas Maduro's government after backing opposition leader Juan Guaido in a prolonged legal dispute.
  • Despite President Nicolas Maduro's capture in January, the bullion remained locked until President Delcy Rodriguez requested its release from King Charles, according to reports.
  • Under the proposed deal, President Delcy Rodriguez would gain legal control over the assets but cannot sell them immediately; the gold would serve as collateral for reconstruction efforts following the twin earthquake.
  • Reuters could not immediately verify the report, as the Federal Reserve Bank, The BoE, and the British Foreign Office did not respond to requests for comment outside regular business hours.
