Kyrgyzstan Strengthens Financial Stability with Over $6.6 Billion in Reserves

The Kyrgyz National Bank has announced that the country’s international reserves exceeded $6.6 billion as of the end of July 2025.

The country’s gross international reserves rose by $109 million from June, increasing from $6.508 billion to $6.617 billion, The Caspian Post reports, citing Kyrgyz media.

The liquid portion of the reserves also grew, reaching $6.545 billion in July compared to $6.436 billion in June.

Since the start of the year, Kyrgyzstan’s gross international reserves have expanded by $1.529 billion.

These reserves consist of the nation’s foreign currency holdings and gold stockpiles, officially managed by the National Bank of Kyrgyzstan. Additional reserves may be held in sovereign funds or within the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) reserve fund.

The substantial reserves enable the National Bank to stabilize the national currency exchange rate through foreign exchange interventions, cover balance of payments deficits to meet international financial obligations, and enhance the economy’s resilience against external shocks by providing resources to navigate global economic challenges.
