China central bank monthly reserves increase by $15 billion, Brad Setser notes — China reserves up $15 billion in June

Brad Setser reports that China's central bank and state commercial banks have released balance sheet data for June. He notes that there were no surprises this month, with the People's Bank of China reserves increasing by a predictable $15 billion monthly throughout 2026, a shift from the -$10 billion monthly seen previously.

But we saved everything 🙂.

Setser previously reported that China's holdings of U.S. Treasuries held by custodians fell to an 18-year low, noting that official data does not capture offshore assets. He has also highlighted that German auto exports to China dropped sharply, posing economic risks. These developments provide context for continued attention on China's external financial positions.
