China’s foreign exchange reserves decreased during March
BEIJING, April 8, 2026 – Official data issued by the National Foreign Exchange Authority yesterday showed that China’s foreign exchange reserves amounted to 3.3421 trillion US dollars at the end of March 2026, recording a decrease of 85.7 billion US dollars, or the equivalent of 2.5%, compared to the level recorded at the end of last February.
The authority indicated that the US dollar index rose last March, while the prices of major global financial assets declined, as a result of the global macroeconomic environment, monetary policies of major economies, and market expectations.
It stated that the combined effects of exchange rate fluctuations and asset price changes led to a decline in China’s foreign exchange reserves over the past month.
The authority added that the Chinese economy recorded a stable and growing performance during the aforementioned period, driven by a new and higher quality development momentum, and that this stable performance provided strong support to maintain the stability of the size of the country’s foreign exchange reserves.
