“ According to a 2023 Invesco survey, a “substantial percentage” of central banks expressed concern about how the U.S. and its allies froze nearly half of Russia’s $650 billion gold and forex reserves. One anonymous central banker told Invesco that his country quietly repatriated its gold from London, and some 68% of the banks surveyed said they are keeping their gold reserve within their country’s borders—up from 50% in 2020.”

Why would any RATIONAL sovereign nation entrust any portion of its gold or other monetary reserves to a nation (e.g., UK, USA) that freezes and/or seizes the reserves of other nations?
Why would any rational nation NOT be planning on repatriating its reserves from such GIBS-ME-DAT-GOLD thieving nation?
Because fort Knox is more safe than third world countries.
