The gold and strong currency reserves of the Romanian Central Bank reached 24 billion euros at the end of July, 450 million more, compared to June. The main cause is the massive participation to the obligatory deposits for banks, a BNR press release informs.
"The bank saw entering some 1.015 billion dollars, representing European funds (185 million euros), income from managing the international reserve, the growth of bonds owned by BNR and the growth of the level of obligatory minimum reserves for commercial banks", the release reads.
The exiting 578.4 million euros were mainly payments for the foreign public debt.
