1. The table covers data on the Bank of Russia and credit institutions including Vnesheconombank. Transactions in government foreign debt and government foreign assets performed by Vnesheconombank as an agent of the Government of Russian Federation are not included.
2. The item «Reserve assets» includes among other reserve assets foreign exchange reserves of the Minfin of Russia as a monetary authority.
3. Starting end June 2002 publication item "Currency and deposits" (short-term), Assets, includes item "adjustment to reserve assets", which was previously shown separately. This adjustment was introduced for the purpose of reconciliation of balance of payments and international investment position data that are prepared in accordance with the 5th Edition of IMF's Balance of Payments Manual, on the one hand, and international reserves data, which have national peculiarities, on the other. The methodology of preparation of official reserves has the following differences from the one contained in the Manual:
- up to the 3rd quarter, 1999 short-term foreign currency deposits in resident banks were included in the international reserves;
- started from the 3rd quarter, 1999 reserve assets are determined net of counterpart of foreign exchange funds placed on the resident banks' accounts with the Bank of Russia (excluding funds extended by the Bank of Russia for the servicing of official foreign debt).
4. Gold is valued at US$ 300 per troy ounce.
5. The item «Use of Fund credit» shows the indebtedness of the Bank of Russia to the IMF.
6. Column "Other changes" includes changes in reporting arrangements between the 4th quarter of 1997 and the 1st quarter of 1998, which take effect on stocks of foreign assets and liabilities of commercial banks on January 1, 1998. Those amendments accounted for less than 5%.
