Question - How do foreign currency reserves work ?

Answer - Foreign exchange reserves are a nation's holdings 
of other countries' currencies  that  can be converted into its 
own currency through the foreign exchange market, as well 
as holdings of foreign assets  in  government securities, such 
as bonds, and gold, that can be easily turned into cash.

Foreign   exchange    reserves   are   held   in   one   or  more 
currencies.  Foreign  exchange  reserves  are  mostly  held  in 
dollars  and  to  a  lesser  extent in euros.A nation can turn to 
its  foreign  exchange  reserves  in  case of emergencies, such 
as meeting deadlines on overseas debt payments.
