Turkey’s gross foreign exchange reserves rose sharply, climbing from $53.12 billion to $59.51 billion, according to the latest data updated on 25 June 2026.
The increase in reserves strengthens Turkey’s external buffer at a time when global financial conditions remain volatile. A higher reserves level generally improves a country’s capacity to meet external obligations, support currency stability, and absorb potential external shocks.
The latest figures suggest that Turkey has managed to bolster its hard-currency stockpile in the period since the previous reading, potentially offering policymakers more room to maneuver in managing balance-of-payments and market expectations.
