Jerusalem, 5 November, 2026 (TPS-IL) — Israel’s foreign exchange reserves increased by $775 million in October 2026 to reach $237.773 billion, according to data released by the Bank of Israel.
The monthly growth pushed the total reserves level to 34.3% of the nation’s gross domestic product (GDP). Central bank officials attributed the overall rise primarily to a financial revaluation of existing holdings, which added approximately $1.755 billion to the total.
This valuation gain was partially offset by routine government foreign currency transactions totaling around $965 million during the same period.
The updated figures reflect sustained stability in the country’s sovereign financial buffer heading into the final quarter of the year.
