The National Bank of Georgia said its net purchases of foreign currency in 2025 totaled USD 2.43 billion, with international reserves reaching a “historic high” of more than USD 6.16 billion. According to updated data, the December purchase, made through the Bmatch platform, totaled USD 361 million.
The National Bank reiterated that “international foreign exchange reserves are an important guarantee of a country’s macroeconomic stability” and that it increases reserves “when market conditions allow.”
Over the past year, the NBG carried out foreign exchange purchases via the Bmatch platform, with monthly net purchases amounting to USD 101.7 million in March, USD 266.4 million in April, USD 245.4 million in May, USD 266 million in June, USD 416.9 million in July, USD 199.6 million in August, USD 100 million in September, USD 167.4 million in October, USD 308.2 million in November and USD 361 million in December. No net purchases were recorded in January and February.
The steady refilling of reserves follows NBG’s major foreign currency interventions in 2024, when it sold more than USD 900 million amid mass protests over the Foreign Agents Law in the spring and again ahead of the October 26 parliamentary elections.
