Israel’s foreign exchange reserves at the end of June 2016 stood at $96,635 million, an increase of $172 million from their level at the end of the previous month.
 
The increase was the result of:
a.       Government transfers from abroad totaling about $109 million.
b.      Private sector transfers totaling about $218 million.
 
These were partly offset by:
A revaluation[1] that decreased the reserves by about $155 million.
