Total reserves minus gold (current US$)

This financial indicator reflects the liquid assets available to a country, specifically highlighting reserves that are not tied up in gold. It includes special drawing rights allocated by the International Monetary Fund, reserves held by IMF member nations within the IMF, and foreign currency holdings managed by a nation's monetary authorities. By excluding gold, this measure provides a clearer picture of monetary flexibility and immediate resources that can be mobilized for economic stability or intervention. The data is presented in current U.S. dollars, offering valuable insights into a country's financial health and its capacity to engage in international trade and finance. This indicator is crucial for assessing overall economic resilience, especially in the face of global financial fluctuations. Source:
