Turkey’s gross foreign exchange reserves declined to $59.04 billion, down from a previous level of $62.15 billion, according to the latest data updated on 30 October 2026.
The drop in reserves highlights continued pressure on Turkey’s external buffers, which are closely watched by investors as an indicator of the country’s capacity to manage external shocks and meet foreign-currency obligations. The latest figure signals a renewed drawdown after the earlier level of $62.15 billion, suggesting ongoing demand for hard currency or official interventions in the FX market.
Market participants will be monitoring subsequent data releases to assess whether this decline marks the start of a deeper trend or a temporary adjustment in Turkey’s reserve management strategy.
