According to the statistics released by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE), by the end of January 2026, China's foreign exchange reserves totaled USD 3.3991 trillion, up by USD 41.2 billion or 1.23% from the end of December 2025.
In January 2026, driven by factors such as the fiscal policies and monetary policies of major economies, and the market expectations, the US dollar index fell and global financial asset prices generally rose. China's foreign exchange reserves increased this month due to the combined effects of currency translation and changes in asset prices. China's economy maintains stability and makes steady progress with development resilience further strengthened, which will support the stabilization of foreign exchange reserves.
