KYIV, Nov 7 – Ukraine’s international reserves in October decreased by 1.9%, or $735.2 million, and as of November 1, 2023, according to preliminary data, amounted to $38.973 billion, the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) reported.

“This dynamics was due to the NBU’s interventions and the country’s debt payments in foreign currency. At the same time, both factors were largely offset by receipts from international partners,” the central bank indicated.
