South Korea's foreign exchange reserves edged down slightly on-month in February.<br />The Bank of Korea says reserves amounted to 404-point-seven billion U.S. dollars, down 840 million dollars from January.<br />The central bank said the drop was largely due to the stronger U.S. dollar, which in turn decreased the value of the Bank of Korea's assets in other currencies.<br />As of the end of January, South Korea had the world's eighth largest foreign exchange reserves, with China topping the list. <br />
