After a brief decline to a trough of 312,800,333.67 in 2016, reserves more than quadrupled, reflecting a combination of increased external financing, remittance inflows and modest improvements in trade balances. The 2025 level is comparable to Montenegro’s 1,536,055,713.63, a peer with a similar ranking, and exceeds the reserves of Malta (1,498,232,514.17). The upward trajectory suggests that continued access to donor funding and stable fiscal management could sustain growth, although any sharp reduction in external aid or a deterioration in the political environment might reverse the trend.
