Kazakh tenge (KZT)

Despite the fact that Kazakhstan was one of the last in the CIS to adopt its own currency, the republic nevertheless did not have temporary money like most post-Soviet countries. The same "money", but in the Kazakh way A group of designers to develop the appearance of the future national currency was assembled already in 1991, and it coped with its task in exactly one year. There was a critical question of name choice: both "aksha", and "altyn", and more convenient for the people "som", by which the Soviet rouble was called by the people, were suggested. However, as a result of heated debates, there was a new version, "tenge", which satisfied most of the opponents. Fortunately, this Turkic word meant just "money" (it is believed that...

Armenian Dram (AMD)

There was a paradoxical situation in Armenia in 2006-2009: imports exceeded exports nearly four times, thus generating a considerable deficit in the trade balance, but the local dram only gained against the dollar, having strengthened by an unprecedented 50% against the USD during the whole period. The crisis of the Armenian dram "Dutch disease", which affected the Transcaucasian republic, was blatantly different from its generally accepted forms. The point is that in this case, the increase in the value of the national currency was not due to the export of raw materials, which Armenia lacks. The authorities of the country explain the rise of the dram with growth of private transfers from abroad, while opposition analysts point to an artificial overvaluation caused by limitation of money supply in...

Mexican peso (MXN)

The most popular currency in Latin America, the Mexican peso, along with the Israeli shekel, became freely convertible in 2008. History of the Mexican peso The history of the peso is associated with the emergence of Spanish colonizers in the Aztec country.

Under that monetary system, the basic unit of currency was the escudo, which contained 16 reals. It is interesting to note that the first peso had the modern symbol of the American dollar, i.e. $. Some historians consider the reason for this to be the accepted abbreviation of the peso at that time as ps, y...

Azerbaijani manat (AZN)

The modern name of the Azerbaijani currency, manat, has been used in the country itself for almost a century, being an unofficial variant for the Soviet ruble among the people. Formation of the Azerbaijani manat After Azerbaijan received its independence, the local authorities decided not to re-invent the wheel, and leave the former name of the money in force. Put into circulation officially in 1992, the manat quickly pointed to the economic difficulties in the country, which was not able to transition to a market economy, as in most post-Soviet state formations. Hyperinflation, which swept over Azerbaijan, continued for about a decade, there was only a difference in the depreciation of the national currency. This situation in the country naturally caused mistrust in the manat of the citizens, who kept most of their deposits in foreign currency. Dollarization...

Georgian lari (GEL)

Практически 16 лет назад в Грузии была введена в обращение новая национальная валюта — лари. За этот подростковый возраст он зарекомендовал себя достаточно стабильной денежной единицей, которой чужды резкие скачки изменения курса. Настоящий клад Грузии – лари Лари на древнегрузинском означает «клад», «имущество». Именно этот вариант был выбран для названия будущей валюты кавказского государства, получив предпочтение перед такими рассматриваемыми альтернативами, как «манат», «марчи» и «тетри». Сама же идея создания собственного денежного знака была поднята в Грузии еще в 1989 году, когда государство было на тот момент еще в составе СССР. В этот же период была создана концепция независимой Грузии, в…

Israeli shekel

Polish zloty

The Polish zloty has served its country well, passing through periods of prosperity as well as long periods of oblivion. The term "zloty" was coined at the end of the 15th century, when they started calling it the equivalent of the Venetian ducat of 30 Polish groschens. Soon zloty became the measure of value and because of the ease of calculation knocked out from this position, as well as the Russian ruble in its time, the Ukrainian hryvnia. Already in 1526-1528 the zloty monetary system was introduced in Poland, despite the absence of minting denominations.

Money "bunnies" - the Belarusian ruble

The Belarusian ruble is just beginning its way down the long winding path to the broad currency highway, so it can still boast only modest achievements. The ISO code is BYR, the numeric code is 974. Emergence of the Belarusian Ruble The emergence of the Belarusian currency dates back to the early 1990s, after the collapse of the Soviet system. At first coupons were introduced in the country, and then banknotes of the National Bank, but the need for a strong currency of its own was becoming evident. The only question was its name: out of the proposed "Belarusian ruble" and "thaler" the first option was chosen. By the end of July, the remaining Soviet rubles began to be supplanted by their Belarusian counterpart and withdrawn from circulation. And despite the signing of the Russian Federation, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Tajikistan...

Краткий экскурс в историю гривны Гривна впервые упоминается еще во времена Киевской Руси, где была известна как знак отличия, мера веса и монета.

К периоду монголо-татарского нашествия существовали уже киевская, черниговская и новгородская гривны. Однако через некоторое время, с появлением…
