In the fourth quarter of 2025 (Q4 2025), reserve assets under China's financial account recorded -461.116 billion RMB, representing a massive reversal from a decrease to an increase compared to the previous value of 444.712 billion RMB in Q4 2024 (Note: a negative value in the balance of payments indicates an increase in assets). This growth mainly benefited from a strong surplus in trade in goods and foreign capital inflows into the securities market, driving an overall climb in foreign exchange reserves. Looking ahead, as the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates and the attractiveness of assets improves, reserve assets are expected to remain robust.
