Azerbaijan's strategic foreign currency reserves reached $85 billion 151.1 million as of April 1 of the current year.
According to data provided by the Operative Information Center-OMM agency, citing the State Statistical Committee, this figure represents a 15.9% increase compared to the same period in 2025.
As of the reporting date, the foreign exchange reserves of the Central Bank of Azerbaijan (CBA) rose by 5.7% year-on-year, reaching $11 billion 656.8 million. While the CBA has updated its figures, the State Oil Fund of the Republic of Azerbaijan (SOFAZ) has not yet officially released its latest asset totals.
The growth of strategic reserves is a key indicator of Azerbaijan's macroeconomic stability and its ability to withstand external economic shocks. These reserves, primarily comprised of SOFAZ assets and CBA foreign exchange holdings, play a crucial role in maintaining the stability of the national currency, the manat, and financing large-scale infrastructure projects across the country, including the ongoing reconstruction in the liberated territories of Garabagh and East Zangazur.
