Footnotes

1. The Data Template on International Reserves and Foreign Currency Liquidity is published weekly on the 7th, 15th, 22nd, and the last working day of the month since August 7, 2001, with a lag of five working days.

2. The figure in item I.A of the Data Template on International Reserves and Foreign Currency Liquidity does not include contributions to the Latin American Reserve Fund (FLAR), nor the Pesos Andinos Allotment from this institution. However, these concepts are included among foreign assets in the BCRP's balance sheet (item I.B). Additionally, the gold and international financial investment balance is registered at market value, while the BCRP's balance sheet registers them at book value. The latter follows conservative criteria, and therefore tends to be lower than the market value. For example, in the case of gold operations, book value is 85 percent of the average of the New York, Zurich and London stock exchanges' closing quotations. In the case of financial investments, the lowest between the acquisition and market values is chosen.

3. Includes the foreign currency cash balance and the ALADI Reciprocal Credit Agreement.

4. Includes repo operations with securities denominated in foreign currency. 

5. Includes interest receivable, contributions to the FLAR and the Pesos Andinos Allotment. 

6. Includes central government and public sector financial firms' foreign debt, Central Bank obligations to the IMF, and public sector domestic debt in foreign currency.

7. Balances in this section are updated at the end of each month.
