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.
South Korean Won
The South Korean Won (KRW) is the official currency of South Korea, managed by the Bank of Korea. South Korea is one of the world's largest exporters of semiconductors, automobiles, and electronics — industries whose global competitiveness is directly affected by the KRW exchange rate. The won is quoted at large nominal values relative to major currencies (typically 1,200–1,400 per USD), reflecting no decimal redenomination since the 1953 monetary reform. South Korea's economy is one of the world's most export-dependent, making the KRW highly sensitive to global trade conditions.
