South Korea Aug. foreign exchange reserves $416.29B
South Korea's foreign exchange reserves stood at USD 416.29 billion as of August 2025, according to data from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System [1]. The stability in reserves reflects the country's robust economic conditions and prudent monetary policy.The South Korean Won to U.S. Dollar spot exchange rate, as reported by the Federal Reserve, remained relatively unchanged throughout August, indicating a stable currency environment [1]. This stability is crucial for maintaining economic predictability and facilitating international trade.
In addition to the stable exchange rate, South Korea's central bank, the Bank of Korea, has been actively managing its foreign exchange reserves. The Bank of Korea has not intervened in the foreign exchange market in August 2025, suggesting a hands-off approach to maintaining currency stability [2].
The Bank of Korea's balance sheet for August 2025 shows a slight increase in foreign assets, which is consistent with the overall stability in the foreign exchange reserves. The bank's foreign assets stood at USD 582.86 billion, up from USD 584.11 billion in July 2025 [2].
The stability in South Korea's foreign exchange reserves is a positive indicator for the country's economic health. It suggests that the Bank of Korea is effectively managing the country's financial reserves and maintaining a stable currency environment. This stability is crucial for attracting foreign investment and supporting economic growth.
