Ukraine's international reserves increased by 10.2% in April

Ukraine's international reserves increased by more than 10% in April and exceeded $46 billionAs of May 1, 2025, Ukraine's international reserves amounted to $46.683 billion, which is 10.2% more compared to the beginning of April. This was reported by the press service of the National Bank of Ukraine.The growth in reserves is primarily due to significant inflows of financing from international partners and a reduction in the volume of net sales of foreign exchange by the National Bank.

During April, the volume of foreign exchange sales decreased by 17.1% compared to March - to $2.21 billion, while the volume of foreign exchange purchases amounted to only $17.5 million.The total volume of receipts to the government's foreign exchange accounts with the NBU amounted to $6.35 billion. Of this amount, $4.86 billion was provided by the European Union within the framework of the Ukraine Facility and the G7 ERA (Extraordinary Revenue Acceleration for Ukraine) initiative, $1.29 billion came through the World Bank channels, and another $192 million came from the placement of foreign currency bonds of domestic government loan (OVDP).Separately, Ukraine received $992 million within the framework of the agreement with the United Kingdom under the ERA program. Since these funds are earmarked, they were not included in the volume of international reserves.

At the same time, Ukraine made payments to service and repay the state debt in foreign currency for a total of $517.9 million. The largest share fell on foreign currency OVDPs ($299.2 million), as well as on debt obligations to the World Bank ($169.3 million) and other international creditors ($49.4 million). Separately, $82.1 million was paid to the International Monetary Fund.In addition, the positive revaluation of financial instruments in April added another $742.5 million to the reserves.The current level of Ukraine's international reserves covers approximately 5.6 months of future imports, which is an important indicator of macro-financial stability.
