About Brazilian Real
The Brazilian Real (BRL) was introduced on 1 July 1994 as a cornerstone of the Plano Real economic stabilisation programme, which successfully ended decades of hyperinflation that had reached over 2,000% annually. The name "real" means "royal" in Portuguese and also "real" as in genuine. The Banco Central do Brasil manages monetary policy. Brazil has the largest economy in Latin America and the ninth largest globally. The real is divided into 100 centavos. The BRL is one of the most important emerging market currencies and is heavily traded in global forex markets.
About South African Rand
The South African Rand (ZAR) is the official currency of South Africa, taking its name from the Witwatersrand (White Waters Ridge), the major gold reef that underpins the Johannesburg metropolitan area and made South Africa the world's leading gold producer for much of the 20th century. Introduced in 1961 when South Africa became a republic, the rand replaced the South African pound. The South African Reserve Bank (SARB) manages monetary policy with a floating exchange rate.
