🌍 Why this matters:
• Bigger balance sheets = more influence over global liquidity
• Central banks still dominate asset markets quietly
• Shifts here often precede moves in FX, bonds, gold, and crypto
📌 Notes:
• Data reflects latest available figures (Sep–Oct 2025)
• Euro Area shown as consolidated Eurosystem balance sheet
• Russia excluded due to lack of consistent, comparable data
