Bruto devizne rezerve Narodne banke Srbije na kraju januara iznosile su 20,913 milijardi evra (20.913,3 miliona evra) što je ujedno i najviši nivo bruto deviznih rezervi krajem meseca od kada se prate podaci na ovaj način, od 2000. godine, objavila je danas NBS.

U toku januara bruto devizne rezerve povećane su za 1,49 miliajrdi evra (1.497,6 miliona evra).

Na ovom nivou deviznih rezervi obezbeđuje se pokrivenost novčane mase M1 od 182 odsto i 5,8 meseci uvoza robe i usluga, što je skoro dvostruko više od standarda kojim se utvrđuje adekvatan nivo pokrivenosti uvoza robe i usluga deviznim rezervama.

 

Increasing by EUR 1.49 billion from end-2022, gross NBS FX reserves reached EUR 20.91 billion at end-January, their highest end-of-month level on record (since 2000).

At the same time, net FX reserves (FX reserves less banks’ FX balances on account of required reserves, liabilities to the IMF under SBA, and other grounds) came at EUR 16.97 billion, having increased by EUR 1.54 billion from end-2022.

– The January increase in gross FX reserves reflects primarily the sale of government securities worth EUR 1.63 billion in the local and international financial market. The Republic of Serbia priced a dual tranche in the international financial market, issuing two eurobonds, with the maturity of 5 and 10 years, in the total amount of EUR 1.59 billion. A net inflow of EUR 86.9 million also came from FX reserves management, donations and other sources – it is said on the National Bank of Serbia’s website.
