During the week ending Jan 3, 2014, SBP's liquid foreign exchange reserves decreased by $412 million to $3.245 million compared to $3.657 million in the previous week.
The decrease in the Central Bank reserves is partly attributed to the payments of $160 million on account of external debt servicing.

During the week, there was no significant inflow from multilateral and bilateral sources.
