British Pound Sterling

The British Pound Sterling (GBP) is the world's oldest currency still in use, with origins in Anglo-Saxon England where 240 silver pennies (sterlings) weighed one pound. The pound was decimalised in 1971, divided into 100 pence. Monetary policy is managed by the Bank of England, founded in 1694. The GBP is the fourth most traded currency in global foreign exchange markets and remains the third largest reserve currency despite the UK's departure from the European Union in 2020.

Brazilian Real

The Brazilian Real (BRL) was introduced on 1 July 1994 as part of the Plano Real — an economic stabilisation programme that successfully ended Brazil's hyperinflation, which had peaked at over 2,000% annually in the early 1990s. The Real replaced the Cruzeiro Real at 1:2,750 and was initially pegged to the US Dollar before transitioning to a managed float in 1999. Managed by the Banco Central do Brasil, the BRL is the most traded Latin American currency and critical for your Portuguese-speaking audience.
