The foreign exchange reserves of the Republic of China amounted to US$456.72 billion as of the end of February 2018, showing an increase of US$1.00 billion from the figure recorded at the end of the previous month.

The main factor responsible for the increase in foreign exchange reserves in February 2018 was returns from foreign exchange reserves management, which were partially offset by the depreciation of the euro and other reserve currencies against the US dollar.
