The Russian central bank stated in a report that “international reserves reached approximately $729.5 billion by the end of October 10, 2025, marking a weekly increase of $7 billion, equivalent to a growth of 1%. This is mainly due to the positive revaluation of the components of these reserves.” Russia’s international reserves are high-liquidity foreign assets at the disposal of the Russian central bank and the Russian government. They consist of foreign currencies, special drawing rights, the reserve position in the International Monetary Fund, and gold.
