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.

South African Rand

The South African Rand (ZAR) is the official currency of South Africa and is also accepted as legal tender in Lesotho, Eswatini, and Namibia. Introduced in 1961 to replace the pound at decimal independence, the rand takes its name from the Witwatersrand ridge where South Africa's gold deposits were discovered in 1886. The ZAR is a commodity currency heavily correlated with gold, platinum, and mining sector performance. It is the most traded African currency and is sensitive to global risk appetite.
