South Africa's gross foreign reserves came in at USD 50.836 billion in February of 2019, little-changed from USD 50.832 billion in the previous month. The marginal increase of USD 4 million mainly reflected the increase from the valuation adjustments due to foreign currency and asset price movements, which was substantially offset by foreign currency payments made on behalf of the government. Foreign Exchange Reserves in South Africa averaged 30079.43 USD Million from 1998 until 2019, reaching an all time high of 51889 USD Million in February of 2012 and a record low of 5316 USD Million in September of 1998.
