While the overall figure reached record levels, the composition of the reserves saw mixed movements. Foreign currency assets, held in convertible currencies, declined by 2.2%, settling at $81.4 billion compared to the prior week.

In contrast, gold holdings experienced a notable rise. The bank’s gold reserves—which encompass both gold deposits and, where applicable, gold swaps—jumped 4.1% to reach $90.9 billion.
