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.

Hong Kong Dollar

The Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) is the official currency of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and has been pegged to the US Dollar within a narrow band (7.75–7.85 HKD/USD) since 1983 under the Linked Exchange Rate System managed by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA). This peg — one of the longest-running currency board arrangements in the world — provides exchange rate certainty for Hong Kong's role as a major international financial centre and trade intermediary between China and the rest of the world.
