SLIGHTLY UP. Showing a healthy uptrend, gross international reserves rose to $36.7 billion in April, already nearing the upper end of the central bank's yearend target of $35-$37 billion. The latest reserve level is good for 6.2 months of imports of goods and payments of services and income, central bank said.
