Georgia’s Gross International Reserves Reach an All-Time High of Approximately USD 6.65 Billion

06 March, 2026

As of February 2026, Georgia's international reserves increased by USD 358.9 million compared to the previous month, achieving a record high. The country's gross international reserves currently stand at approximately USD 6.65 billion.

International reserves serve as a crucial guarantor of the nation's macroeconomic stability. Accordingly, the long-term policy of the National Bank of Georgia (NBG) is consistently directed toward the accumulation of reserves and the efficient management of reserve assets. Whenever the foreign exchange market and macroeconomic conditions permit, the NBG replenishes its currency reserves. Cumulatively, net purchases amounted to USD 2,432.5 million throughout 2025, and USD 86.6 million in January 2026. Updated statistics regarding net purchases for February will be published on March 25.

As of February 2026, gold accounts for 18% (USD 1,198.4 million) of the gross international currency reserves. Driven by market price changes, the value of monetary gold has appreciated by approximately USD 698.40 million since its acquisition, underscoring the soundness of the NBG's reserve diversification strategy.

The National Bank of Georgia will release updated data concerning official international reserves on April 7, 2026.
