Israel’s Foreign Exchange Reserves Fall at the End of 2025
Israel's foreign exchange reserves fell by $1.941 billion to $229.484 billion in December 2025, mainly due to government activity.
Jerusalem, 7 January, 2026 (TPS-IL) — The Bank of Israel reported that Israel’s foreign exchange reserves at the end of December 2025 stood at $229.484 billion, a decline of $1.941 billion from their level at the end of the previous month. The level of the reserves relative to GDP was 39.4%.
The decline, said the Bank, was mainly explained by foreign exchange activity by the government totaling about $3.483 billion. This decline was partly offset by a revaluation of the reserves totaling approximately $1.509 billion.
