How to interpret this ranking
This is a directional country-attribution model, not a household ownership census. Industrial silver in use is excluded, and every row retains an uncertainty range.

Broad silver per capita attributes estimated above-ground investment and ornamental stocks to countries and divides them by resident population. In the current 2025 view, Switzerland ranks first among 195 countries at 21.8 fine troy ounces per resident.

Quick answers
Common questions
Plain-language answers explain what the numbers include, what they leave out and where the source coverage ends.
Which country ranks first for broad silver holdings per capita?
Switzerland ranks first among 195 countries in the current view at 21.8 fine troy ounces per resident.
How is the per-capita figure calculated?
The published metal quantity is converted to fine troy ounces or grams and divided by the documented resident population. Rankings use unrounded values.
Does this show what a typical resident personally owns?
No. These holdings are country-attributed research estimates, not a census of what residents personally own.
Why are some countries unavailable?
The broad model covers 195 sovereign states, but evidence grades and component availability vary by country.
How do Silver holdings, production and reserves differ?
Holdings are estimated above-ground stocks, mine production is one year's flow, and underground reserves are estimates of recoverable geological stock.
