Japan: Official Reserve Assets

Macro

Description

Japan's Official Reserve Assets are published by the Ministry of Finance (MOF). These assets comprise foreign exchange reserves, International Monetary Fund (IMF) reserve positions, Special Drawing Rights (SDRs), gold holdings, and other reserve assets. This indicator is crucial in assessing a country's ability to manage its currency and meet its international obligations. Higher reserves indicate greater financial stability and a stronger capacity to defend the national currency during economic turmoil.

Official Reserve Assets are calculated by adding the value of foreign exchange reserves, IMF reserve positions, SDRs, gold reserves, and other reserve assets.

The data is updated monthly and released by the Ministry of Finance, typically around the 7th business day of the following month.
