August 2013
The foreign exchange reserves of the Republic of China amounted to US$409.39 billion at the end of August 2013, showing an increase of US$0.27 billion from the figure recorded at the end of the previous month.

The level of foreign exchange reserves showed a moderate increase in August because returns from the management of reserve assets were offset by the depreciation of the euro against the US dollar.
