The newly released China financial account foreign exchange reserve assets for Q4 2025 recorded -42.447 billion RMB, turning negative from the previous value of 84.830 billion RMB, reflecting a real increase in official foreign exchange reserves. Benefiting from the valuation effect brought by U.S. interest rate cuts and a strong trade surplus, China's overall foreign exchange reserve scale broke through 3.35 trillion USD at the end of December. The overall scale has not only expanded for five consecutive months but also set a new high record in nearly ten years.
