FCHAIN Georgia office informs:
In February 2025, Georgia’s official international reserve assets decreased by $202 million and amounted to $4.23 billion, according to a report published by the National Bank of Georgia.
In annual terms, Georgia’s international reserve assets have decreased by $512 million, or 11%.
It is not yet known what caused the decrease in reserves. As far as is known, the NBG did not sell any currency at the foreign exchange auction in February, but it is unknown whether the NBG sold currency through the Bmatch platform. Statistics on this will be announced on March 25.
In addition, the value of Georgia’s foreign exchange reserves was also affected by the increase in the price of gold, as the value of gold in the reserves increased from $645 million in January to $650 million, which is related to the record increase in the price of gold on the international market.
