SEOUL: South Korea's foreign exchange reserves increased for a second straight month in December 2022 and by the largest amount in more than two years, central bank data showed on Wednesday .
The country's FX reserves stood at US$423.16 billion as of the end of December, up US$7.06 billion over a month, according to the Bank of Korea. It marked the biggest monthly increase since November 2020. The increase resulted from larger foreign deposits of financial institutions and converted value of non-dollar assets, despite a downside effect from the FX swap programme with the country's pension fund, according to the BOK.
The US dollar index, a measure of the greenback's value against six major currencies, fell 2.3 per cent in the last month of 2022.
