During September 2013, the stock of international reserves remained almost unchanged, standing at USD 21, 639 million (in the equivalent) at the end of the month.

The dynamics of international reserves were largely defined by domestic and foreign borrowings by the Government of Ukraine (equivalent of USD 882 million), the repayment of public and state-guaranteed debt effected by the Government of Ukraine in a timely fashion and in full (equivalent of USD 475 million), and the interventions conducted by the National Bank of Ukraine (equivalent of "minus" USD 582.5 million).
