Notes
IMF Reserve Data Template, tables 2.15.1 (latest month) and 2.15.2 (historical, one sheet per month back to Nov 2013). Periods after this series' own source ends are read from CBSL's Weekly Economic Indicators, which prints them weeks earlier, and marked provisional: they are first estimates, dated by the issue, and the series' own source replaces them once it catches up.
