Saudi Riyal
The Saudi Riyal (SAR) is the official currency of Saudi Arabia, managed by the Saudi Central Bank (formerly SAMA). The riyal has been pegged to the US Dollar at approximately 3.75 SAR/USD since 1986 — one of the world's most enduring currency pegs — made sustainable by Saudi Arabia's enormous oil revenues. As the world's largest oil exporter and a founding member of OPEC, Saudi Arabia's economic fortunes and the riyal's stability are closely tied to global oil market conditions.
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.
