The foreign currency Reserve in Nepal has reached a record Rs 28.66 trillion by mid‑December 2025, says Nepal Rastra Bank. The reserves were about Rs 24.14 trillion in mid‑July 2025 and rose by nearly 19 percent in five months.
The reserves include foreign money held by Nepal Rastra Bank and banks. Money held by banks and financial institutions also went up, from around Rs 263 billion to Rs 335 billion over the same period.
Of the total foreign currency reserve in Nepal, the Indian rupee makes up about 22 percent. This reflects Nepal’s strong trade and financial ties with its neighbouring country.
Based on current imports, Nepal’s foreign currency reserve can pay for more than 21 months of goods and over 18 months of goods and services. This shows the country has strong protection against external financial risks.
Experts say one reason for this big rise in reserves is the steady flow of remittances sent by Nepalis working abroad. These remittances bring foreign money into the country and help the central bank build its reserves.
A higher foreign currency reserve in Nepal gives the economy more stability. It helps pay for imported goods, supports the value of the Nepali rupee, and gives the country time to handle emergencies.
Overall, this record high in foreign reserves is a positive sign for Nepal’s economy. It boosts financial security and confidence in the country’s future.
