FX.co ★ Malaysia’s FX Reserves Edge Higher to USD 132.1 Billion

Malaysia’s foreign exchange reserves inched up to USD 132.1 billion, compared with USD 131.8 billion previously, according to the latest data updated on 22 October 2026.

The modest increase in reserves suggests a slightly stronger external buffer for Malaysia, potentially providing the central authorities with a bit more room to manage currency stability and external obligations. While the change is small in absolute terms, it indicates that reserve levels are being maintained at a relatively stable and elevated range in the current period.
