CURRENCY AMOUNTS IN THE NEW SDR BASKET

Currency amounts refer to the number of units of each currency in the SDR basket and play a central role in the daily valuation of the SDR. They are determined on the transition date and remain fixed over the five-year SDR valuation period. Each business day during the valuation period, the value of the SDR (in U.S. dollars) is calculated as the sum of the currency amounts, valued at daily exchange rates of the currencies against the U.S. dollar.

The currency amounts for the new SDR basket will be determined and published on July 29, 2022 (transition date), based on exchange rates from May 2, 2022 through July 29, 2022. The daily exchange rates that will be used in the calculation of the final currency amounts on July 29, 2022 are available here:
