The Bank of Israel published updated figures showing that Israel’s foreign exchange reserves stood at USD 230,321 million at end-August 2025, up USD 3,553 million from the previous month. Reserves were reported at 41.0 percent of GDP. The monthly increase was mainly driven by a revaluation of approximately USD 3,759 million, partly offset by government foreign exchange activity of about USD 209 million. Of the end-August total, USD 225,695 million was held as reserves excluding the International Monetary Fund (including reserves bought under the natural gas purchase program) and USD 4,626 million was held at the IMF.
