Türkiye’s Total Reserves Drop at End of June Despite Rise in FX Holdings
CBRT FX reserves
The Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye (CBRT) reported a decline in its total international reserves for the second consecutive week, reversing a six-week streak of gains.
As of the week ending June 27, 2025, foreign exchange reserves rose by $398 million, reaching $71.1 billion, up from $70.7 billion the previous week. However, this increase was offset by a sharp decline in gold reserves, which fell by $1.69 billion to $83.3 billion, down from $85 billion.
Net Reserves See Notable Decline
The total reserves dropped from $155.7 billion to $154.4 billion. Meanwhile, net international reserves decreased significantly by $1.76 billion, sliding from $48.1 billion to $46.37 billion.
This marks a renewed pressure on Türkiye’s external buffers amid ongoing global and domestic financial uncertainties.
