As of January 23, 2026, Pakistan’s total liquid foreign reserves have reached US$ 21,293.3 million, according to the latest data released by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP). This represents a slight increase in the country’s foreign reserves, which is critical for maintaining economic stability.

The SBP reported that its foreign reserves rose by US$ 13 million during the week ending January 23, bringing the total reserves held by the central bank to US$ 16,101.1 million. Meanwhile, commercial banks hold net foreign reserves amounting to US$ 5,192.2 million.

The central bank’s efforts to bolster foreign reserves come at a time when the economy faces various external pressures. Analysts emphasise the importance of these reserves for the country’s international payment obligations and to support the Pakistani Rupee against currency fluctuations.

The latest figures offer a glimpse of Pakistan’s economic resilience, though challenges remain. Stakeholders are closely monitoring the situation as the government works to achieve better fiscal health and enhance foreign investment opportunities.
