TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, October 8. Uzbekistan’s foreign exchange and gold reserves have reached a record $55 billion as of September 2025, marking an increase of $4.9 billion, Trend reports.
Per the Central Bank's latest communiqué, the foreign currency
reserves experienced an uptick from $9.4 billion to $10.2 billion,
concomitantly with an appreciation in the gold component of the
reserves, which escalated by $4.2 billion, culminating in a total
valuation of $44.2 billion.
Concurrently, the tangible metric of gold experienced a marginal
contraction from 11.8 million to 11.6 million troy ounces, as
observed by the Central Bank.
The foreign exchange and gold reserves held by the Central Bank are
pivotal in sustaining the equilibrium of the national economy and
the overarching financial architecture. They can be leveraged to
bolster the national currency by modulating its exchange rate
amidst volatile oscillations, to fulfill external liabilities to
creditors, to underwrite import expenditures during crisis
scenarios, and to function as a buffer against external economic
contingencies.
